FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- An apparent drunk driver was killed after he was thrown out of his vehicle during a crash in Fresno County.

Authorities have identified the man as 36-year-old Miguel Rodriguez Felix.

CHP officials say the crash occurred a little before 2 pm on Tuesday in the area of Jameson Avenue west of Manning Avenue.

They say it looks like Felix was driving the wrong way down Jameson Avenue - northbound in the southbound lane.

He lost control of the vehicle, causing it to overturn.

Felix was ejected from the vehicle and died of his injuries at the scene.
