Sacramento, CA (August 2, 2025) — Three people were killed and another critically injured early Saturday morning in a fiery collision on Roseville Road in Sacramento, where police believe driving under the influence may have been a factor.
Incident Details: The crash occurred around 12:45 a.m. near Connie Drive and involved a truck and a passenger vehicle. Sacramento police officers nearby heard the impact and responded to find the vehicle engulfed in flames. Two occupants were found dead inside the burning car, while a third victim, who appeared to have been ejected, also died at the scene. The truck’s driver, who is suspected of being impaired, was transported to a hospital in critical but stable condition. The identities of the deceased have not yet been released.
Investigation and Legal Considerations: Authorities continue their thorough investigation, including examining toxicology reports, crash reconstruction, and witness statements to assess the cause of the collision.
