Man killed, dog severely injured in S.F. rollover crash
A driver was killed in a car crash Saturday morning after he lost control of his vehicle while exiting Highway 101 in San Francisco's Bayview neighborhood, and his dog was severely injured. The crash was reported just before noon at Mansell Street and San Bruno Avenue, according to San Francisco Fire Department Lt. Mariano Elias. First responders found the driver, a man in his 30s, dead at the scene and an injured dog in the rolled-over vehicle, a white Dodge Challenger. Investigators believe the driver was southbound on Highway 101 when he tried to exit via Paul Avenue and lost control, Elias said. The California Highway Patrol temporarily closed the exit, which has since reopened. San Francisco Animal Care and Control transported the dog for medical care, but its status was not immediately available Saturday afternoon.
