BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (Sept. 14, 2022) —  Martha Alicia Flores, 48, and Monte Harold Johnson, 65, both of Arvin, died Friday night in a collision with a big rig truck at Malaga Road and Sunset Boulevard.

The deadly two-vehicle crash occurred about 10 p.m. on Sept. 9th near Arvin, according to Bakersfield Californian and the California Highway Patrol.

All three people from the Honda died at the crash scene. The family of Martha Flores has a GoFundMe account to raise money for her funeral.
