At Rest

Pursuit
Oceanside police stopped a Ford F-150 for minor violations at 12:12 a.m. When officers left their patrol car, the driver of the truck, Christian Zurita, 42, sped away from the intersection. Police got back in their cruiser and pursued the truck, but reportedly abandoned the chase when the truck turned and went the wrong way on northbound I-5. The truck collided head-on with a Pontiac Grand Prix driven by a 19-year-old Matthew Ryan Adams. Speeds reportedly reached 100 mph, with the collision killing both drivers in a fiery crash about 12:20 a.m.
This record exists so that Matthew Ryan Adams, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
