Accident Kills Pedro Fuentes

Pedro Fuentes, 18, 15830 "K" St., Mojave, died early last Saturday morning from injuries suffered in a one car accident last Friday, Oct. 9th.
The accident happened at 11:15 p.m. on the Cameron Canyon Rd., six-tenths of a mile south of the Willow Springs Tehachapi Rd. The California Highway Patrol estimated that the 1965 Ford Mustang driven by Mitchell Paul Kelland, 19, Star Route
2, Cameron Canyon Rd., Mojave was traveling at.an excessive speed of approximately 75 miles an hour when it went out of control on a curve.
Fuentes was the only one of the four occupants thrown from the car. He was taken to the Tehachapi hospital by
Morris Ambulance Service. The driver and Mark Odean Remme, 19, Route 1, Platte ,South Dakota, were treated and released from the Tehachapi hospital. The fourth passenger, Edward Eugene Vassar, 21, 220 Valley Boulevard, Tehachapi, was not injured.
The California Highway Patrol measured 270 feet of skid marks before the vehicle left the roadway and another 216
feet of marks when the car went into a gully, rolling down and partially back up the embankment.
