Fresno, CA (September 10, 2020) – A woman was left injured after a crash involving two vehicles in the northwest section of Fresno on Wednesday morning. At around 9 a.m., on September 9, the Fresno Police Department and medical personnel responded to the scene of a crash on North Palm Avenue.

Reports show that a stolen pickup truck driven by an adult male ran a red light at the intersection of North Palm Avenue and Browning Avenue when it crashed into a second vehicle near Bullard High School.

The impact of the crash caused the pickup truck to crash into a pole and a building near the intersection.

The female driver in the second vehicle was injured in the accident. The woman was rushed to a nearby hospital for treatment of injuries. At this time, the police are investigating the circumstances leading to the crash.

Our thoughts are with the victim, their family, and everyone else who has been impacted by this accident.

Car Accidents in California

Car accidents are one of the most devastating things a person can go through. Not only are they forced to deal with having their day completely interrupted, but they are often left with painful injuries that demand extensive medical treatment. In the state of California, more than 150,000 people are hospitalized annually as a result of injuries sustained in traffic-related incidents. Many victims are ushered from the site of collisions and admitted into hospitals for treatment. Having to go through emergency surgery and spent days or even weeks in hospitals can be overwhelming. Many people feel confused, scared, and unsure of how to move forward after being involved in an accident.

When victims are injured in accidents as a result of the negligence of other motorists sharing the road, it is crucial that they reach out to a car accident attorney in California as soon as possible. Victims may be entitled to compensation to help alleviate the financial burdens they face moving forward. In many cases, accident victims are able to recover compensation to cover both economic and non-economic damages, including:

  • Medical costs
  • Long-term care costs
  • Lost wages/lost earnings
  • Vehicle repair or replacements
  • Pain and suffering
  • Mental anguish
  • Punitive damages
  • And more

In cases where victims lose their lives in accidents, surviving relatives may be entitled to compensation for funeral costs, burial fees, loss of consortium, and various other damages.
