Modesto, California – Bicyclist Dies after Brutal Accident

Modesto, California (July 8, 2018) – Modesto local news sources reported that a bicyclist died as the result of a brutal accident that took place near the intersection of Briggsmore and College Avenues. The incident occurred at approximately 9:00 PM at night on Wednesday, July 4, 2018. The Stanislaus County Coroner’s Office has revealed the deceased victim to be 60-year old Jay Diaz. Authorities have identified the motorist involved in the crash as 57-year old Dean Lovelady.

Based on the report, Lovelady was driving his car down Briggsmore Avenue. Simultaneously, Diaz was riding his bicycle down a similar route.
