Janice Leslie, 53, Injured in East Sonora Crash on Highway 108

EAST SONORA, CA (September 30, 2022) – A car crash left Janice Leslie injured on Highway 108 in East Sonora.

The California Highway Patrol identified the 53-year-old Twain Harte as the victim of the wreck which took place on Friday.

The incident happened when Janice Leslie was driving a 2002 Ford Expedition west on Highway 108 in East Sonora. At the same time, a 2008 Ford Escape was going east.

For an unknown reason, the Escape crossed over the double yellow lines directly in front the Expedition. CHP said the two cars then collided head-on east of the Hess Avenue exit.

Michiko Kitchen, 87, Seriously Hurt in Wreck

The Expedition went off the road due to the impact of the collision and plunged down the embankment. My Mother Lode wrote that the accident occurred at around 7:24 a.m.

Paramedics treated Janice Leslie for the minor injuries she sustained following the crash. The driver of the Escape, 87-year-old Michiko Kitchen, sustained major injuries as a result of the wreck.

Medical personnel rushed the Sonora woman to the Doctors Medical Center in Modesto for further aid. Meanwhile, a logging truck tried to make a U-turn in the eastbound lane as traffic backed up.

In the process, the logs shifted. The truck and trailer ended up disabled and blocked both lanes of Highway 16 for two hours following the incident.

The cause of the East Sonora crash is still under investigation.
