Stockton, CA – One man was killed, and five others were injured in a single-vehicle crash Sunday evening, January 11, 2026, near the intersection of Navy Drive and Fresno Avenue, according to KCRA.

The Stockton Police Department responded to the scene just after 9:00 p.m. and found the 33-year-old male driver deceased at the site of the collision. Emergency responders transported three passengers — a man, a woman, and a teenage boy — to local hospitals with non-life-threatening injuries. Two additional passengers were treated at the scene for minor injuries.

Traffic on Navy Drive, between South Fresno Avenue and Tillie Lewis Drive, was temporarily blocked in both directions while officers investigated the crash. Police confirmed that the vehicle was carrying a total of five passengers.

Authorities continue to investigate the circumstances of the crash, and no additional details regarding contributing factors, such as impairment or speed, have been released at this time.

Single-Vehicle Collisions

In some cases, investigations may reveal that even in a single-vehicle accident, nearby drivers or unsafe road features share some responsibility. California’s Comparative Negligence rule means that, even if those injured in accidents are found partially at fault, they may still be eligible to receive partial compensation for damages.

Passenger Liability

Driver liability insurance covers both those outside the vehicle and passengers inside. While it can be emotionally difficult to file a Personal Injury claim against someone close to the victim, the financial challenges after an accident can be overwhelming. As a neutral third party, an experienced personal injury attorney can help navigate these emotional complexities.
