A fatal incident involving a vehicle claimed a life in Sacramento's Ben Ali neighborhood this morning. As reported by KCRA, emergency medical services were dispatched to a spot on Auburn Boulevard, south of Helena Avenue, around 6:10 a.m., where a person was discovered having sustained fatal injuries due to a car.

The person's death, under unclear circumstances as to how the injury occurred, prompted immediate response from the Sacramento Police Department. ABC10 reports that officers were called to the 1600 block of Auburn Boulevard just after 6:00 a.m. following reports of a fatal collision. The area, stretched between Glenrose Avenue and Helena Avenue, was closed due to reports of the fatal collision that happened sometime before officers arrived on the scene.

As the investigation continued, a section of Auburn Boulevard was closed between Glenrose and Helena avenues for police activity. No further details about the deceased were released, and CBS Sacramento confirmed that officers responded to a collision report and found a person with fatal injuries. Motorists were advised to use alternative routes as the area remained closed.
