Last night in Pittsburg, a tragic accident claimed the life of a driver, according to the local police department. The incident occurred around 6:55 p.m. on East Leland Road, between Gladstone Drive and Loveridge Road. It was a solo-vehicle collision that resulted in a fiery crash, leaving the vehicle engulfed in flames.
The authorities reported that the vehicle collided with a power pole and a fire hydrant before bursting into flames. Sadly, the driver, who was the only one in the car, did not survive the impact. The Pittsburg Police Department released a statement expressing their sorrow over the loss of life in this terrible accident.
The crash caused a power outage in the vicinity, and to conduct further investigations, the police had to block both directions of East Leland Road. They used patrol vehicles and barricades to secure the area. However, around 10:10 p.m., another incident occurred when a black Ford Explorer, travelling eastbound, crashed through the barricades and hit three patrol vehicles. The driver was treated at the scene and later arrested for suspected driving under the influence.
As the investigation into the fatal crash continues, the police are asking for anyone with information to come forward. They can contact Traffic Officer Kevin Barkley at 925-252-4005 or the police department at 925-646-2441. This is a developing story, and updates will be provided as more information becomes available. Our thoughts go out to the family and loved ones of the victim during this difficult time.
