Rancho Cordova Man Killed Sunday In 3-Car Crash He Allegedly Caused
RANCHO CORDOVA (CBS13) - A Rancho Cordova man was killed Sunday night in a three-car crash that he caused, say police.
Twenty-two-year-old Steven Watts was reportedly speeding and driving his vehicle recklessly on eastbound Elder Creek Road around 8:37 p.m. Sunday when he apparently ran a red light and collided with a vehicle car heading northbound on Florin-Perkins Road. That vehicle then hit another vehicle that was stopped at the light, waiting to go west on Elder Creek Road, said Justin Brown, a spokesperson for the Sacramento Police Department.
Watts was thrown from his vehicle and pronounced dead at the scene.
The two other drivers were taken to the hospital and were treated for non-life threatening injuries.
Sacramento Police Department's Major Collision Investigators and CSI were called to the scene to investigate the crash.
