One dead, four injured after car crash on Highway 41 in California

One person was killed and the other four were injured on Friday morning after a car crash south of Fresno, in California.

The crash took place about 8:30 a.m. on Highway 41 and Floral Avenue, near Easton when a Ford F-150 truck driven by a 17-year-old was northbound on the highway.

As the driver approached Floral Avenue, the driver of an eastbound Chevrolet van, identified as Adrian Flores, 33, drove into the path of the pickup, which broadsided the van.

A 25-year-old passenger in the van had critical injuries when he was ejected.

A 35-year-old man in the van was pronounced dead at the scene.

Flores and two other passengers were injured.

One lane was blocked for a time after the crash as California Highway Patrol investigated the incident.
