11:24 am CHP UPDATE: TWO VEHICLE FATAL CRASH ON SR-4 IN ANTIOCH.
Early this morning, October 13, 2024, at approximately 5:13am, a Contra Costa CHP Officer came upon a two vehicle crash involving a Gray Honda CR-V and a Blue Ford F-150, located on SR-4 eastbound, just west of A Street, blocking the #3 and #4 lanes. The CHP Officer notified dispatch of the crash and CHP, along with other emergency services, began to assist.
Our preliminary investigation determined the Honda, solely occupied by a male adult driver, became disabled in the #4 lane for unknown reasons. The Ford, solely occupied by a male adult driver, was traveling on SR-4 eastbound, just west of A Street when the Ford crashed into the rear of the disabled Honda. Due to this crash, the Honda immediately became fully engulfed with its driver trapped inside.
The driver of the Honda sustained fatal injuries and was pronounced deceased at the scene. The driver of the Ford sustained suspected minor injuries, was transported to the hospital, and is expected to recover. It was determined DUI was not a factor in this crash.
This crash is still under investigation. If anyone witnessed it or the events leading up to it, please contact CHP Contra Costa in Martinez, (925) 646-4980 or email your contact information to [email protected] to be contacted by the investigating officer.

I was stuck in that traffic. Once CHP opened up a lane and as I passed the scene, it wasn’t very pleasant. Tragic. Praying for everyone involved.
