A big-rig driver died when his truck went off the freeway and into a tree Sunday morning in San Ramon, California Highway Patrol officials said.
Someone called the CHP at about 7 a.m. to tell them that a big-rig went off southbound Interstate 680 just north of Alcosta Boulevard and clipped a vehicle on the right shoulder of the freeway.
CHP spokesman Officer Tyler Hahn said the truck continued through a fence and into a tree.
The occupants of the vehicle clipped by the big-rig were not hurt.
CHP officials said the crash closed northbound San Ramon Valley Boulevard between Alcosta Boulevard and Pine Valley Road because the truck came to a stop on San Ramon Valley Boulevard.
San Ramon Valley Boulevard fully reopened to traffic around 5 p.m. Sunday, CHP officials said.

I’m so glad no one else was hurt. I do feel sorry for this driver who died and his family. No doubt fell asleep on the road while working long hours as a truck driver. God bless
