Officials stated that 53-year-old Todd Lyman, a resident of Clovis, died on Wednesday after his vehicle crossed over the center median south of Dakota Avenue and collided with three parked cars, one of which was occupied. 

California Highway Patrol officers reported that was ejected from his vehicle onto the roadway.

According to the coroner’s office, 32-year-old Magal Bhatti, who was seated in the driver’s seat of one of the parked cars, has also passed away. Bhatti’s injuries were more severe than originally presumed.
