Crash into Parked Vehicle Takes Life of Victorville Man

VICTORVILLE – A 25-year-old Victorville man lost his life as a result of a traffic collision on La Paz Drive and Avalon Avenue on Sunday morning. At around 4:49 a.m. deputies from the Victorville Station and emergency medical personnel responded to the intersection for the report of a two vehicle traffic collision.
