Man Killed After Car Swerves Off 210 Freeway
A speeding driver veered off the Foothill Freeway to his death Tuesday, as his car landed upside-down on a residential street, authorities said.
The 29-year-old man was driving a Chevrolet Corvair east on the Foothill Freeway about 2:30 p.m. when his car swerved off and tumbled 200 feet down an embankment, said California Highway Patrol Officer P. Kimball.
The car came to a rest on its top on Paxton Street near Foothill Boulevard, said Officer Karen Faciane.
The man, whose name was not released pending notification of his family, was pronounced dead at the scene, authorities said.
