One person was killed and six others were injured Saturday afternoon in a three-vehicle crash in Fresno County.
The crash was reported at about 4:20 p.m. at Brawley and Jensen avenues.
California Highway Patrol Sgt. Adrian Lopez said the crash involved a Ford Fusion, a Volkswagen sedan and a Ford F-150.
A gray Ford Fusion was traveling south on Brawley Avenue, while the Volkswagen was traveling west on Jensen Avenue and the Ford F-150 was traveling east, Lopez said. Jensen Avenue does not have a stop sign at the intersection, but Brawley Avenue does.
Investigators have not determined whether the Ford Fusion stopped before entering the intersection, Lopez said.
The Volkswagen struck the driver’s side of the Ford Fusion, followed by the Ford F-150 striking the passenger side of the Fusion.
A male passenger in the Ford Fusion died at the scene, Lopez said.
Six other people were taken to a hospital with injuries ranging from moderate to major. They included the drivers of all three vehicles and three passengers.
CHP does not suspect alcohol or drugs were factors in the crash.
The collision remains under investigation.
