A Yorba Linda couple has been killed after their car was hit by a driver that ran a red light at a Temecula intersection, according to a news report.
Riverside County Sheriff’s Department officials said that Amar Jain, 74, and Cheryl Jain, 66, were in their 2008 Honda CRV making a left turn at Jefferson Avenue onto Rancho California Road when they were hit by a 2006 Hyundai that ran a red light while traveling west on Rancho California. The couple died at the scene.
The Hyundai driver – Christopher Bostic of Temecula – was seriously injured and taken to a local hospital for treatment. Investigators are trying to determine if drugs or alcohol played a role in the fatal crash, and there were some witness reports that Bostic had been involved in another accident just prior to the fatal collision. No arrests have been made yet.
