The driver who died after slamming his pickup into seven other vehicles at a Fullerton intersection was identified Friday as Adrian Davis of Brea, the Orange County coroner’s office said.

Davis, 57, crashed head-on into multiple vehicles Thursday afternoon, said Fullerton police Sgt. Jeff Stuart. The collision occurred about 4 p.m. at Harbor Boulevard and Valencia Mesa Drive.

Five people from the other vehicles were taken to hospitals with various injuries, none of which were life-threatening.

Davis was driving northbound on Harbor Boulevard when his Ford F-150 hit the vehicles in the southbound lane, Stuart said.

The truck flipped onto its roof and came to a stop on top of another vehicle.

Davis was pronounced dead at the scene. The cause of the accident remains under investigation.
