Huntington Beach, CA (May 21, 2026) – A 65-year-old Huntington Beach man was killed in a two-vehicle collision Wednesday, May 20, on Gothard Street near Lorge Circle. Police reported that a tan Chevrolet Colorado and a white Toyota Sienna were heading south when the Chevrolet collided with the Toyota just before 5:20 p.m. Investigators reported that the Chevrolet then veered into the northbound lanes and collided with a tree next to the road. Paramedics discovered the Chevrolet driver unresponsive inside the pickup truck. The man was transported to a nearby hospital but succumbed to his injuries. The 60-year-old driver of the Toyota, from Westminster, was uninjured and cooperated fully with investigators. Initial reports suggested that the Toyota driver was not impaired, whereas any potential impairment on the part of the Chevrolet driver was still being investigated. No identities have been disclosed after the crash. Investigators continue to piece together the exact events that caused the collision on the road.
