A 42-year-old woman died early Wednesday morning and two people were hospitalized after a head-on crash in the Eastlake area of Chula Vista, authorities said.
Officers responded around 4:50 a.m. after two vehicles crashed on Otay Lakes Road, just east of Wueste Road, police said.
The woman who died was driving a Toyota Corolla east on Otay Lakes Road when her vehicle crossed into the oncoming lane of traffic and collided head-on with a Toyota Camry, police said.
When first responders arrived, they found the Corolla driver had been ejected from her car. She died before she could be taken to a hospital.
A driver and passenger in the Camry were injured in the crash and transported to a hospital. The extent of their injuries was not released.
The name of the woman who died was not immediately available. The cause of the collision remains under investigation, police said.
