TUOLUMNE COUNTY, CA (March 17, 2023) – A fatal crash left Joshua Selesia badly injured on Highway 108 west of Jamestown in Tuolumne County.
The California Highway Patrol identified the 37-year-old Sonora man as the victim in the wreck which took place on Thursday.
The incident happened when Joshua Selesia was driving a 2013 Ford F-650 tow truck west on Highway 108 near Jamestown. At the same time, a 2003 Honda was going east.
For an unknown reason, the Honda went onto the south shoulder and overcorrected. The car then crossed over the broken yellow line into the path of the Ford.
In the process, the Honda slammed into the Ford F-650 hauling a 2001 Ford Excursion. The Excursion ended up dislodged from the flatbed of the tow truck due to the impact of the collision.
