Date: August 14, 2009
Location: Southbound I-15 north of Limonite Avenue, Corona, CA
Type: SUV Rollover Accident
Outcome: Teenage girl killed
A young girl from the Inland Empire city of Corona died last week when the SUV she had been traveling in rolled over while driving along the Interstate 15, a popular stretch that has a large presence in San Diego and travels northward and eastward through Riverside and San Bernardino Counties towards Nevada and Las Vegas. The girl was 16 years old.
The Riverside County coroner’s office identified the victim as Alexis Victoria Vega. She died at the scene of the accident, which took place north of Limonite Avenue on southbound Interstate 15 on August 14, 2009.
While the accident is still under investigation, the CHP noted that Joshua Daugherty, 19, of Corona, drove onto the dirt shoulder and veered back to the freeway at much too fast a speed. The SUV then spun and hit a metal call box before overturning, sliding on its side and rolling onto the roof. Daugherty, along with front-seat passenger Issac Ball, 18, of Corona, were able to exit the vehicle, but Vega was trapped in the back seat.
