LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Authorities have released the name of the second person to die from injuries sustained in a solo-vehicle crash last weekend.
Ronda Gullickson, 59, of Clearlake Oaks died after she was flown by air ambulance to Kaiser Vacaville on Saturday, Feb. 15, according to the Solano County Coroner’s Office.
Earlier this week, the Lake County Sheriff’s Office identified Richard Joseph Adams, 69, of Nice as the driver who died at the scene of the wreck, as Lake County News has reported.
The third victim in the crash, 33-year-old Justin Hendrix of Woodland, is reported to be stable, said California Highway Patrol Officer Joel Skeen. Hendrix was flown to Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital.
The CHP said Adams was driving a blue 2002 Chevrolet Trailblazer westbound on Highway 20, east of the intersection of Morine Ranch Road in Clearlake Oaks, at an unknown rate of speed just before 5 p.m. Saturday when he went off the road and hit three separate trees.
Adams died at the scene, while Gullickson and Hendrix were flown out of county by separate air ambulances, the CHP said.
The CHP said neither drugs nor alcohol are suspected as factors in the crash.
Gullickson had previously been involved in a traffic incident when she and her dog had been seriously injured in a January 2010 crash when they were hit by a car while walking across Highway 20 in Clearlake Oaks in a marked crosswalk.
