The crash happened around 1:47 a.m. on southbound 280 Freeway at Bascom Avenue.

According to the California Highway Patrol, a 2013 BMW E350 sedan carrying four men failed to negotiate a curve and went off the roadway, struck a tree, and rolled over several times before it landed back on its wheels.

One of the passengers, a 24-year-old man, was killed in the accident. His name has not yet been released pending next of kin notification.

The 23-year-old driver sustained major injuries and was hospitalized. He will be arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence after he is treated.

All four men were San Jose residents.
