Major Injuries in Head on Collision on Hwy 49 Yesterday
San Andreas, CA...On April 20, 2021, at approximately 1514 hours, Narciso F. Sanchez was driving his 1953 Chevy pickup northbound on SR-49 north of SR-12 approaching a Ford F150. Bryan D. Bowman was driving his Ford southbound on SR-49 north of SR-12, approaching the 1953 Chevy. Due to unknown reasons, Mr. Sanchez allowed his pickup to travel over the solid double yellow lines into the southbound lane, into the direct path of the F150. As a result the vehicles collided head on.
After the initial collision, the Ford continued out of control and collided with a Dodge Minivan stopped in the driveway of 1113 HWY 49. The Chevy became disabled, blocking the roadway, while the Ford and Dodge came to rest blocking the driveway at 1113 HWY 49.
All parties involved were transported by air or ground to various hospitals outside of Calaveras County for treatment.
Alcohol and/or drugs do not appear to be a factor in this traffic collision. Full Details are in the CHP release below.
