SONORA, CA (November 5, 2021) – Marcial Sanchez died in a fiery five-vehicle pileup on Highway 108 on October 16.
 
The fatal crash happened just after 5:00 p.m. just west of Sanguinetti Road. The 60-year-old victim from Modesto was driving a Toyota pickup truck eastbound. He tried to pass the vehicle ahead of him on the right shoulder, sparking the chain-reaction crash.
 
Sanchez’s pickup then burst into flames. He was trapped inside his burning vehicle and died at the scene.
 
Luckily, the occupants in a GMC Suburban were able to get out of their vehicle before it also caught on fire.
 
The other people involved only sustained minor injuries.
 
At this time, it is unknown whether alcohol or drugs played a role in this tragic crash. The California Highway Patrol is still investigating the accident.
