HOLTVILLE â Thirteen persons died in a two-vehicle crash at Norrish Road and Highway 115 near Holtville Tuesday morning.
California Highway Patrol Border Division Chief Omar Watson at a Tuesday morning press conference said the fatalities were all from 25 occupants in a maroon Ford Expedition SUV that was struck on its left side by a semi-truck hauling two gravel trailers at the intersection about 6:15 a.m.
Watson said that at the time of the crash, the semi was traveling north on Highway 115 and the Expedition was traveling west on Norrish Road.
Watson said it is unknown if the Expedition stopped at the stop sign, but the SUV entered the intersection in front of the semi-truck, leading to the collision.
Authorities said they are still unsure what brought the SUV into the path of the truck and why so many people were inside of it.
Watson, who heads the agency’s border division, said the scene was “chaotic” when fire crews and law enforcement agents arrived about 10 minutes after the crash; it was not expected to be cleared until late evening because of the ongoing investigation. By late afternoon, the CHP was still working with the coroner’s office to identify passengers.
