On Monday, August 9th, 2021, at 2:52 pm, the Turlock Police Department, Turlock Fire Department, and American Medical Response were dispatched to a reported vehicle collision with injuries in the 2700 block of E Canal Dr, Turlock.

When crews arrived on scene, they located two vehicles involved. One was a beige Ford compact SUV and the other was a gray Toyota pickup truck. Crews found that the driver of the beige SUV was having a seizure, unresponsive and had shallow breathing, thus CPR was started after the seizing completed.
