Indio man killed in overnight crash

An Indio man died in an overnight two-car wreck on Interstate 10 east of Palm Drive.

The California Highway Patrol says the collision was reported at 1:58 a.m. Thursday morning.

The 41-year-old driver in a pickup truck swerved to the right side of the freeway side-swiping another vehicle in the number 3 lane.

Officials say the pickup then went to the freeway's right shoulder hitting a sign before overturning.

The California Highway Patrol said the truck's driver was then thrown out of his vehicle and pronounced dead at the scene.

His name was not immediately released.

A 50-year-old Arizona woman suffered no injuries in the collision.

It was not immediately known if any drugs or alcohol were a factor in the crash which remains under investigation.
