A 46-year-old Los Angeles man who was a passenger in a Honda Civic was killed after the Civic crashed into another vehicle on I-5, according to a news report.
The California Highway Patrol said that Francisco Gonzalez-Duran was sitting in the back seat of a Honda Civic traveling north on I-5 near the 91 freeway interchange when the driver lost control and crashed into a Nissan Frontier and a wall. Gonzalez-Duran was pronounced dead at the scene.
Two other people in the Civic were seriously injured; one was taken to Western Medical Center in Santa Ana and the other was transported to UCI Medical Center in Orange. Both are expected to survive. The driver of the Nissan Frontier was not injured.
