Man Ejected From Car, Killed After Multi-Car Crash

A man was hit and killed after being involved in a multi-vehicle crash on northbound Interstate 15 in Valley Center early Saturday morning.

A Volkswagen rear-ended a Dodge Ram around 4:15 a.m. near Gopher Canyon Road, leaving the Volkswagen sticking out partially in the road.

About four minutes later, a Dodge Magnum struck the Volkswagen, sending it into a spin.

The Volkswagen’s driver was ejected from the car into the middle of the road.

A minute later, the driver was hit by another car and instantly killed. He was also hit by at least one other car that fled the scene.

The drivers of the other two cars had cuts and were treated at the hospital.

All lanes of northbound I-15 were closed for four hours after the incident.

The crash remains under investigation.
