1 Dead in Hanford Multi-Vehicle Accident on 12th Avenue and Flint Avenue
HANFORD, CA (June 25, 2024) – Friday morning, a 45-year-old man died in a brutal multi-vehicle crash on 12th Avenue and Flint Avenue.
The incident occurred at around 10:45 a.m. on 12th Avenue and Flint Avenue.
Officers promptly responded to investigate the crash on 12th Avenue. The investigation revealed that the driver of a 2014 Chevrolet was heading northbound, followed by a 45-year-old man driving a 2012 Mazda. A 26-year-old in a 2006 Chevrolet was also traveling northbound, behind the 2012 Mazda.
According to CHP, as traffic ahead began to slow, the driver of the 2014 Chevrolet reduced speed. Consequently, the driver of the 2012 Mazda also slowed down. However, the 2006 Chevrolet failed to stop in time, leading to a collision with the right rear of the 2012 Mazda.
The impact forced the 2012 Mazda into the southbound lane of 12th Avenue, where it collided head-on with a 2024 Mazda. Meanwhile, the 2006 Chevrolet continued northward, side-swiping another vehicle with its left front.
Meanwhile, the male driver of the 2012 Mazda sustained fatal injuries due to the crash.
CHP indicated that driving under the influence is not suspected to be a factor. The victim’s identity has not yet been released.
