Staff Report
A 32-year-old Reedley man was killed Jan. 7 after he was ejected from his car in a single vehicle crash north of Reedley.
According to the California Highway Pa- trol, Margarito Campos-Ruano was driving east on Goodfellow Road at Rio Vista Avenue shortly before 10:45 p.m. when his 2003 Pontiac drifted onto the gravel shoulder. After overcor- recting, Campos-Ruano lost control of the ve- hicle and crashed into a chain link fence before overturning several times.
Campos-Ruano — who the CHP said was not wearing a seatbelt — was ejected from the car and suffered fatal injuries. CHP officials said it’s unknown if alcohol or drugs were a factor in the accident. The crash was still un- der investigation on Jan. 8.
It was the second death of a Reedley driv- er in a week’s span since New Year’s Eve. On Dec. 31, 28-year-old Carlos Perez Ramirez died from injuries suffered in a collision with an- other vehicle near Buttonwillow and Huntsman avenues.

area but were unable to iden- tify a suspect, Cates said. The car had not been recovered as of Jan. 9.
