Copperopolis Man, 57, Killed In Rollover Crash On Highway 120

TUOLUMNE COUNTY (CBS13) — A Copperopolis man has died after a crash on Highway 120 east of Knights Ferry early Sunday morning.

California Highway Patrols says, around 2:30 a.m., 57-year-old William Reeves was heading eastbound on the highway near Green Springs Road when - for an unknown reason - he went onto the shoulder at a high speed.

Reeve's vehicle then continued on the dirt center median before he clipped a paddle marker.

The car then went out of control until it finally crashed into an asphalt curb on the south shoulder - causing Reeve's vehicle to overturn into the grass.

Officers say Reeves died at the scene. He was not wearing a seatbelt, CHP says.

Neither drugs nor alcohol were factors in the crash, CHP says.
