(KRON) — The Vallejo Police Department is probing the city’s fourth traffic-related fatality of the year. Police said evidence collected at the scene suggests alcohol may have played a factor.
Vallejo PD said patrol officers and Vallejo Fire Department personnel responded at 3:34 a.m. Friday to a reported traffic collision in the 1000 block of Fairgrounds Avenue.
Upon arrival, officers located the vehicle that had crashed into a tree, and its male driver who was unresponsive in the front seat. Medics were not able to find any signs of life and the man was pronounced dead at the scene.
Investigators believe the car “veered off course and collided with multiple fixed objects, including the tree.” No other cars or individuals were involved in the incident.
VPD said toxicology results are pending and will be confirmed after an autopsy. The victim’s identity is being withheld pending notification of next of kin by the Solano County Sheriff’s Coroner’s Office.
The crash is under investigation. Anyone with information is asked to contact Sergeant Lenard Alamon at (707) 648-4329 or Lenard.Alamon@cityofvallejo.net.
