Crash in Rancho Bernardo
An elderly passenger faced a terrifying ordeal on a fateful Sunday afternoon in Rancho Bernardo when a car ran a red light, resulting in serious injuries, according to authorities. The incident occurred at the intersection of Camino Del Norte and Paseo Montanoso in the Rancho Bernardo neighborhood of San Diego.
The San Diego Police Department disclosed that a 24-year-old man, behind the wheel of a Honda, is now facing accusations of running the red light. The ill-fated moment transpired at precisely 1:11 p.m., and it took a grave turn when the Honda collided with a Toyota as it was making a left turn onto Paseo Montanoso.
