On Sunday, March 23, a young man died in an accident in a rural part of Sacramento County.
According to the California Highway Patrol, the accident happened at around 7.15 p.m. along Highway 99 near Elverta Road in Sacramento County. Brandon William Jakaboski, aged 23, of Rio Linda was driving a truck southbound and he ran off the right shoulder and the vehicle flipped over. Jakaboski was the lone occupant of the truck.
People stopped to try and help Jakaboski, but were unable to get him out of the vehicle. Emergency crews responded and eventually managed to extricate him, however, their efforts were in vain and he was declared dead at the scene.
Investigators believe Jakaboski was driving at a high rate of speed and that is what caused the accident.
