The front seat passenger in the Fiat died at the scene, the CHP said. Authorities did not identify that person immediately, pending notification of relatives.
The two drivers both were hospitalized with what the CHP termed minor injuries.
“Any information, no matter how small, could be vital to the investigation,” the CHP said.
