Kindra McAfee ID’d as Person Killed in Fresno

The coroner has identified the 18-year-old woman who was killed in a two-vehicle collision on Saturday afternoon. 

Kindra McAfee died following the crash that occurred around 4:20 p.m. on October 8th.

According to reports, the two vehicles collided at Jensen Avenue, just west of Sycamore Avenue. 

McAfee was heading westbound in a Toyota Camry when she made a U-turn in front of an eastbound Jeep Grand Cherokee. 

As a result, the Camry struck the driver’s side of the Jeep. 

Four occupants of the Jeep sustained minor to major injuries and were transported to Fresno Community Regional Medical Center. 

McAfee sadly died at the scene of the crash. 

JT Legal Group sends our deepest condolences to the family and friends of Kindra McAfee.

U-turns are basically left turns which account for nearly a quarter of all vehicle crashes according to NHTSA.

In addition, those who are making the u-turn are often the person at fault. This is because those who initiate a U-turn must allow for enough time to make sure they don’t impact the flow of traffic from the opposite direction. 

Tips for after accident procedures:

• Always stop at the scene 
• Call 911 if there are any injuries 
• Get vehicle to safety if it is moveable, if it is not, put on hazards
• Exchange information with others involved and document everything 
• Call 911 to report accident – they determine who was at fault
