UPDATE: Man Ejected In Highway 4 Crash Dies Of Injuries Monday
A man ejected from his truck and seriously injured in a crash on Highway 4 Monday morning later died of his injuries, according to the California Highway Patrol.
Officers responded to reports of a crash in the westbound lanes of SR4 east of Mc Ewen Road at approximately 10:45 a.m. and found an overturned white Ford Ranger on its roof with its driver ejected into the middle lanes of traffic.
The unidentified driver was taken to a hospital where he was later pronounced dead.
Investigators said the Ford was driving westbound when it left the road and rolled off a center-divide embankment. The driver did not appear to have been wearing his seatbelt, officers reported.
There were no other reported injuries. Investigators blocked off at least one lane of traffic until all lanes reopened just before 12:25 p.m.
