On Wednesday night, a 31-year-old man, of La Mesa, lost his life after he plowed his speeding car into a concrete wall in front of a home in the Casa de Oro area of Spring Valley.
The preliminary investigation showed that the driver was traveling south on Conrad Drive, just south of Rogers Road, at a high speed when he could not maintain control of his 2001 Honda Civic, crossed over the northbound side of the road and went onto the dirt shoulder.
Just then, the car slammed into a concrete pillar in a retaining wall in front of a house. The man, the only occupant of the car, was not wearing a seatbelt at the time of the accident. On arrival, first responders rushed the driver to a hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries. It is unknown if alcohol or drugs played a part in the crash. Authorities will release the identity of the deceased after notifying the next of kin.
The crash remains under investigation.
