Man Died Early Thursday when Car Struck Trees in Fontana

JULY 12, 2009 - High speed appears to be a factor in a solo-vehicle crash that killed a 22-year-old man, authorities said. Jesse Valenzuela of Fontana was driving a 2007 Toyota Tundra south on Liberty Parkway about 12:26 a.m. when his vehicle swerved into the center divider south of Meyer Canyon Drive, according to the San Bernardino County coroner’s office. The truck slammed into two trees located in the median, nearly ripping the vehicle in half, authorities said. Valenzuela was wearing a seat belt, but was ejected anyway, according to the Fontana Police Department. He was pronounced dead at the scene. The Fontana Police Department is investigating the collision.
