Officers say a southbound Dodge Grand Caravan driven by Mikio Garcia was traveling at a high rate of speed. 

At the same time, a 58-year-old Fresno man was driving a northbound Honda Civic on Maple Avenue. The vehicle turned west on Clinton Avenue on a green light when the Dodge failed to stop for the red light.
