One person is dead and another injured after a crash outside of Caruthers

CARUTHERS, Calif. (KFSN) -- One man is dead after CHP officers said he ran a stop sign near Caruthers.

Officers say the man was driving this white Crown Victoria eastbound on Mountain View at Cornelia and didn't stop. They said he was broadsided by a pickup.

The impact of the crash caused the truck to overturn and killed the driver of the car. The man was not wearing a seat belt, but officers say the impact was so severe it likely would not have saved his life.

The female driver of the truck was taken to Community Regional Medical Center with moderate injuries.
