1 Killed and Another Injured in Ceres Crash Involving Reckless Driving


Ceres, CA (October 13, 2018) – Ceres police are investigating a crash involving reckless driving that killed one and seriously injured another in Ceres Saturday afternoon, October 13th. The incident occurred just before 5:30 p.m. at the intersection of Ustick and Service roads, when 29 year-old Rigoberto Alvarez of Ceres ran the stop sign at Service.
