A 55-year-old Jamul man suffered fatal head injuries Tuesday night when his truck collided with a car at Granite Hills Drive and Madison Avenue in El Cajon, police reported.

Robert John Weaklem was driving north on Granite Hills Drive about 9:30 p.m. when he failed to stop at Madison Avenue, where there is a stop sign, police said. The pickup struck a car eastbound on Madison Avenue.
