FILLMORE : 3 Die in Crash Near Redlands
Three men, including two from Fillmore, were killed early Sunday in a head-on collision in San Bernardino County, according to the California Highway Patrol.
Dario Sebastian and his passenger Heriberto Orozco, both 23 and from Fillmore, were killed when a wrong-way driver slammed into their car about 3:15 a.m. Sunday along the San Bernardino Freeway near Redlands.
The wrong-way driver, 32-year-old Jose Marino of San Bernardino, was also killed, San Bernardino County Deputy Coroner Jim Sedgewick said.
Marino was driving west in the eastbound lanes of the San Bernardino Freeway early Sunday when he forced one car into the center divider before crashing into Sebastian’s car, CHP Officer Raymond Ynostroza said.
Another passenger in Sebastian’s car, who was not identified, was reported in serious condition Sunday.
