Valley, California (May 5, 2022) – Clifton Vial, 62, of Rosamond, and Vanessa Aguilar, 28, of Rosamond, have been identified as two of the three parties who were injured in a Tuesday evening head-on collision that killed a 29-year-old man in Antelope Valley, authorities said.

The accident happened on Sierra Highway, south of Avenue B, at around 8:08 p.m., on May 3.

According to the California Highway Patrol, a 2017 Nissan Sentra, driven by a 29-year-old Inglewood man, was headed northbound on Sierra Highway when it unsafely attempted to pass a 2008 Honda Pilot, operated by Aguilar. 

Unfortunately, the Nissan reportedly collided head-on with a 2001 Toyota 4-Runner, driven by Vial, that was traveling southbound on the highway.

As a result of the crash impact, the Nissan went out of control towards the east shoulder of the roadway, where it flipped over. The Toyota overturned in the crash and was struck by the Honda.

Drugs or alcohol were not suspected of having played a role in the accident.
