Irvine Police Investigating Fatal Collision

Irvine, Calif. (February 20, 2025) – A man has died after being involved in a traffic collision.

Today, at 3:34 p.m., the Irvine Police Department (IPD) received reports of a traffic collision at the intersection of Campus Drive and Turtle Rock Drive.

IPD and the Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA) immediately responded to the area. When first responders arrived, they found a 2022 Chevrolet Equinox SUV that had been involved in a single-vehicle collision. OCFA quickly assisted the driver and sole occupant and had him transported to the hospital, where he passed away from his injuries.

The preliminary investigation shows the driver was driving southbound on Campus towards Turtle Rock Drive. The vehicle struck the curb at the end of Campus, traveled south, and rolled over onto the roof. Investigators have determined the driver was having a medical emergency before the collision.

The driver's name is not being released pending notification of next of kin.

IPD's Major Accident Investigation Team (MAIT) is investigating this case. Anyone with information about this collision
