One killed in two-vehicle crash near Lancaster [updated]

by City News Service • September 29, 2018 3 Comments

LANCASTER – A 38-year-old man was killed Friday evening in a two-vehicle collision near Lancaster, authorities said today.

The crash was reported just after 6 p.m. Friday, Sept. 28,  at 70th Street East and East Avenue I, according to California Highway Patrol Officer J. Murawski.

Investigators determined Sandra Guzman, 31, of Lancaster, was driving a 1998 Honda Accord northbound on 70th Street East when she failed to stop at a posted ”STOP” sign at the intersection with Avenue I and collided with the driver side of a 1996 Honda Accord driven by a man from the Kern County town of Boron, Murawski said.

The man suffered fatal injuries, Murawski said. His name has not yet been release pending next of kin notification.

Guzman was transported to a hospital with major injuries, he said.

Alcohol or drugs were not suspected as a factor in the crash, Murawski said.

UPDATE: The deceased has been identified as 38-year-old Viktor Skaggs of Boron, according to the Los Angeles County Coroner’s Office.

    EVERY SINGLE TIME i approach a street with stop signs, EVEN if I have the right of way, I ALWAYS check for oncoming traffic from other directions. JUST to make sure they are stopping/slowing down.

    Follow this simple rule here in the AV and it just might save your life.

    Tragic. RIP

    The Man that was killed was a long time resident of Boron. He was a hard working guy and this is tragic. We here in the community know who it is but I will not share it out of respect for his family.
