The article has been updated to reflect this correction.] A head-on crash in Anderson left one driver dead and another seriously injured, according to the California Highway Patrol (CHP). The crash occurred at about 7 p.m. on Sunday, June 21, on Panorama Point Road, south of Kimberly Road. CHP said a 25-year-old Anderson man was traveling north in a black GMC Yukon when, for reasons still under investigation, he crossed the double yellow lines and entered the southbound lane. At the same time, a silver Chevrolet Colorado, driven by Paul Pascual Jr., 77, of Cottonwood, was traveling south when the front of the GMC collided with the Chevrolet. After the crash, CHP said both vehicles rolled north. The GMC came to rest on railroad tracks, while the Chevrolet stopped on the right shoulder of Kimberly Road west of the tracks. The GMC caught fire after the crash. CHP said emergency personnel extricated the driver and attempted lifesaving measures, but the driver died from his injuries. Pascual suffered major injuries, including lacerations to his right arm, and was transported to Mercy Medical Center in Redding. CHP investigators determined that alcohol or drugs were not factors in the crash. The collision remains under investigation. -- Report a correction or typo.
