A Hayward man was killed Wednesday evening when an SUV he was riding in drove off of I-680 in Pleasanton and hit a tree.
A spokeswoman for the Alameda County coroner’s bureau identified the victim today as Boyd Fowler, 67.
The driver of the compact SUV, a 74-year-old Hayward woman, suffered major injuries and was taken to Eden Medical Center, California Highway Patrol Officer D. Reed said. Her name has not yet been released.
Reed said the 2000 Honda CR-V was traveling north on the highway, south of the West Las Positas Road overcrossing, at about 65 miles per hour
around 5:30 p.m. when it veered off the roadway for an unknown reason, went down an embankment and hit a large tree.
Reed said both the driver and the passenger were wearing seat belts, and that alcohol was not a factor in the crash.
The investigation is continuing, he said.
