Two people badly hurt in rollover Modesto crash, police say
Modesto police are investigating a Saturday morning crash crash that badly hurt two people.
The single-vehicle rollover crash happened about 6:30 a.m. at Miller Avenue and Camellia Way, just northeast of Yosemite Boulevard and La Loma Avenue.
Police Lt. Jason Grogan said six people were in the vehicle. Initial reports were that at least one pedestrian may have been struck, but it turned out that two people were ejected from the vehicle as it overturned.
Of the six occupants, two were hospitalized in critical but stable condition, and two fled the crash scene on foot, Grogan said.
There are no known witnesses, and no other information on the crash circumstances or the people involved was immediately available.
