The California Highway Patrol is investigating the death of a driver who was found in his crashed vehicle Saturday morning in unincorporated Contra Costa County.
CHP officers were called to Marsh Creek Road, east of Sycamore Springs Road, about 6:15 a.m. Saturday (Sept. 20) after reports that a black Ford F-250 had crashed.
A preliminary investigation found the vehicle had left the roadway for unknown reasons and crashed into trees before going down an embankment.
The driver was described as an older man, but his identity was not released.
The highway patrol is trying to determine whether the driver suffered a medical emergency before the vehicle left the roadway, CHP spokesman Dan Gilmore said.
