Visalia man killed after crashing into a trailer in Fresno County, CHP says

FRESNO COUNTY, Calif. (KFSN) -- A man has died after crashing into a trailer carrying an asphalt paving machine in Fresno County.

The video above is from an earlier story and will be updated.

The crash happened just before 5:30 a.m. Wednesday at Mountain View and Clovis avenues, just west of the city of Selma.

CHP officers say a 24-year-old man from Visalia was driving a Toyota Camry west on Clovis Avenue and a 39-year-old Fresno County employee was driving the truck east on Mountain View Avenue.

Investigators say the driver of the Camry lost control and veered into the path of the trailer.

The collision sent both cars off the roadway and into a nearby orchard.

The Visalia man was taken to Community Regional Medical Center, where he was later pronounced dead.

The county employee was not injured.

Alcohol or drugs do not appear to be factors in the crash.

The investigation is ongoing.
