Fullerton, CA : 2 killed, at least 4 injured in Fullerton crash involving motorcycle on Monday , 10th April 2023

Authorities on Monday were still investigating the circumstances that led to a chain-reaction crash in Fullerton Easter morning that resulted in the deaths of two people and injuries to at least four others.

A preliminary investigation revealed that an Audi sedan with a 32-year-old driver and Yamaha motorcycle were traveling northbound on Magnolia from Orangethorpe Avenues when they struck a Toyota Siena that was making an eastbound turn onto Flower. The impact of the collision caused the motorcyclist to be ejected and the Audi to veer off the roadway striking a bicyclist and a pedestrian, both of whom were on the east sidewalk of Magnolia. The Audi then struck a telephone pole, coming to rest against the front of a home. A gas leak resulted and multiple residents in the area had to be evacuated.

The pedestrian has been identified as Antonia Mendez Ruiz, 68. Neighbors say she was on her morning stroll when the incident occurred.
