On November 3, 2022, at about 12:55 p.m., officers with the Eureka Police Department responded to the 2800 block of Broadway for the report of a collision involving two vehicles.
The driver of the involved truck was reported to be uninjured while the status of the driver of the sedan was unknown. Once on scene, and with the assistance of Humboldt Bay Fire and City Ambulance, it was determined that the driver of the sedan was deceased due to injuries sustained during the collision.
The Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office Coroner responded to the scene while the investigation continued. Next of kin has been notified and the driver has been identified as 32-year-old Aldo Emmanuel Zaragoza of Fortuna.
Based on the initial investigation, it appears Zaragoza was traveling southbound on Broadway prior to the collision. For unknown reasons Zaragoza veered across the center turn lane and into northbound oncoming traffic, colliding with the truck.
It does not appear drugs or alcohol played a factor in this collision. This is an ongoing investigation, anyone with information is asked to contact Officer Sollom at jsollom@EurekaCA.gov or (707) 441-4060.
