Accident on Vintage Park Drive Kills Two and Injures One
A single-vehicle crash in Sacramento County occurred at about 4:00 a.m., according to the California Highway Patrol (CHP), that killed two people and caused significant injuries to one of the passengers. The collision occurred on Vintage Park Drive near Kirkton Court in what police reported was a high-speed crash. The vehicle in question was driven by a female with a man in the passenger seat in front and another man riding in the back seat.
Out-of-Control Driver Strikes Fence, Killing Themself and Front-Seat Passenger
The vehicle driver apparently lost control and ran into a fence at a residential home on Vintage Park Drive. The driver and front-seat passenger died in the collision, while the man in the back seat suffered major injuries and was hospitalized. No one in the home was injured, and the house was undamaged. Officials have recently identified the decedents as Essence Ntchampo, 21, and Trayvon Winton, 33, of Vallejo.
Investigation Continues Into High-Speed Single-Vehicle Crash
Authorities do not believe that either alcohol or drugs factored into the cause of the fatal single-vehicle crash. The vehicle turned out to be a Florida-plated rental car. No one in the vehicle was carrying a driver’s license. The names of the deceased have not been released pending notification of the family by the Sacramento County Coroner’s Office.
Negligence in a Single-Vehicle Crash
