One man sustained life-threatening injuries and another was less seriously injured on Saturday when their vehicle, being driven at a high rate of speed, veered off the road and slammed into two trees, police said.
The incident occurred at 6:06 a.m. in the 900 block of Mariner’s Way, San Diego police Officer Frank Cali said.
“A 19-year-old man driving a black 2003 Ford Mustang with a 19-year-old male passenger was leaving Mariner’s Point traveling westbound at a high rate of speed and lost control of the vehicle,” Cali said.
“The vehicle veered to the right and slammed into two trees.”
Cali said alcohol was suspected of being a factor in the crash. An investigation is ongoing.
