Fresno, California (June 4, 2020) – The man who died in a traffic accident involving a car and a train Sunday afternoon in Fresno has been identified as Paul Whited, 52, of Riverdale.

The deadly crash happened at about 4:30 p.m. Sunday, May 31, at the intersection of Golden State Boulevard and North Avenue.

Authorities said Whited’s car was in the crossing when, for unknown reasons, it was hit by a Union Pacific train.

Whited died at the scene of the accident.

No injuries were reported on the train.

An investigation by Union Pacific and the sheriff’s office is underway.

A person on foot is no match for a large, multi-ton vehicle. Pedestrians have virtually no protection when they are hit by cars, motorcycles, trucks, and other vehicles. Sadly, this often leads to catastrophic injuries and/or death.
