Woman Killed in Two-SUV Crash on Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard in Sacramento

Fatal Morning Collision Near 22nd Avenue

Two SUVs collided on Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard near 22nd Avenue in south Sacramento at about 6:20 a.m. Friday, November 6. The location is south of Christian Brothers High School in Sacramento County. The Sacramento Bee and CBS Sacramento independently reported the same collision, citing CHP.

The woman driving a white SUV died at the scene. Her name and age were not released in the verified accounts. The man driving the gray SUV remained at the scene and cooperated with investigators, according to the reports.

CHP Describes a Preliminary Sequence

According to CHP information reported by the Bee and CBS Sacramento, both SUVs were traveling northbound. The white SUV attempted a left turn or U-turn as the gray SUV attempted to pass on the left. The gray SUV struck the driver side of the white SUV, and both vehicles overturned. These are preliminary investigative accounts, not a final determination of responsibility.

Whether alcohol or drugs played a role had not been determined in the verified coverage. No arrest was established by the checked accounts. This was a separate incident from the November 5 Highway 99 big-rig crash in the Elk Grove area.
