A 38-year-old man was killed in a two-vehicle collision near Lancaster, authorities said Saturday.
The crash was reported just after 6 p.m. Friday at 70th Street East and East Avenue I, according to California Highway Patrol Officer J. Murawski.
Investigators determined Sandra Guzman, 31, of Lancaster, was driving a 1998 Honda Accord northbound on 70th Street East when she failed to stop at a posted ”STOP” sign at the intersection with Avenue I and collided with the driver side of a 1996 Honda Accord driven by a man from the Kern County town of Boron, Murawski said.
The man suffered fatal injuries, Murawski said.
Guzman was transported to a hospital with major injuries, he said.
Alcohol or drugs were not suspected as a factor in the crash, Murawski said.
The man’s name was withheld pending notification of next of kin.
