MENIFEE, CA (January 31, 2023) – Sunday morning, Judith Armijo died in a two-vehicle crash on Menifee Road and Watson Road.

The fatal accident happened at around 9:50 a.m. on Menifee Road and Watson Road.

According to reports, 75-year-old Judith Armijo of Menifee drove an eastbound Hyundai sedan on Watson.

Then, the Volkswagen crashed into the driver’s side of Armijo’s vehicle at an unknown speed.
