The solo-vehicle crash was reported around 8:50 p.m. on Holsclaw Road north of Highway 152, the California Highway Patrol said in a news release. Officers arrived to find a 2013 Toyota Tundra had veered off the roadway and struck a tree.
The driver and sole occupant of the pickup truck — identified only as a Gilroy resident — was killed in the crash, according to the CHP. The Santa Clara County Medical Examiner-Coroner’s Office will release his identity after it is confirmed and his next of kin is notified.
As of Friday, the CHP did not know whether alcohol or drugs played a role in the incident.
“Our thoughts are with the family and friends of the deceased,” CHP Capt. Noel Coady said in a statement. “As we continue to investigate the cause of the crash, this tragedy serves as a reminder for all of us to comply with traffic laws and take a safety-first approach to driving. Lives depend on it.”
Anyone with information related to the case can contact the Hollister-Gilroy CHP area office at 408-427-0700.
