EGPD Investigates Fatal Collision

At 2;23 a.m today the Elk Grove Police Department responded to a 911 call regarding a single vehicle collision at Elk Grove Blvd. and Highway 99 (northbound).

Upon arrival, officers discovered a Chevy Camaro with major damage on Highway 99 near the center median just north of the Elk Grove Blvd. overpass. Medical personnel were already on scene and determined that the only occupant of the vehicle, an unidentified female, was deceased. Identification of the driver will be made by the Sacramento County Coroner’s Office.

Investigators have determined that the driver of the Chevy Camaro was apparently travelling westbound on Elk Grove Blvd. approaching the on-ramp to Highway 99 when she lost control of her vehicle. The vehicle proceeded to drive down an embankment and collided with several trees.

The vehicle then crossed three lanes of traffic on Highway 99 before coming to rest near the center median. At this time, the collision is under investigation. Anyone with information regarding this fatal accident is asked to call the Elk Grove Police Department Traffic Bureau at (916) 478-8148.
