Fatal Boyle Heights high-speed crash death of Jose Trevizo – Obituary
A violent high-speed collision in Boyle Heights claimed the life of 77-year-old Jose Trevizo on Thursday night. The tragic incident, captured on a nearby surveillance camera, occurred around 9 p.m. in the vicinity of 4th Street, just east of Euclid Avenue.
According to authorities, a Mercedes traveling eastbound on 4th Street collided head-on with Trevizo’s Honda as he attempted a left turn. The impact was severe, and Trevizo was pronounced dead at the scene.
Two male teenagers in the Mercedes were injured in the crash and hospitalized. It remains unclear if they were arrested or taken into custody.
Witnesses rushed to assist after hearing the loud collision. Connie Lomeli, a bystander, described the scene: “I tried to open the door, but I couldn’t. I opened the passenger side, and the old man was really leaning over. I want to say they were probably going like 85 or 90. They were going pretty fast.”
The incident is under investigation as authorities work to determine the exact circumstances leading to the crash.
