On Sunday, July 1st, a man was killed in a crash on the 101 freeway. Jose A. Ocana Hernandez was finally identified on Tuesday, July 3 at the Marin County Coroner’s Office. He had been driving home on a Sunday morning when he lost control of his vehicle and crashed.
His 1993 Honda Civic collided into the center barrier of the freeway. It is here where investigators believe that Hernandez may have over-corrected himself, causing him to go across the freeway and to hit a guardrail. His vehicle stopped at a ditch near the guardrail. Police officials are not sure whether Hernandez had been sleepy when he drove or if he had been speeding. Hernandez was declared dead on the scene. Anyone with information about the accident was asked to contact police officers.
