A crash involving a big-rig northeast of McFarland has killed a 20-year-old Bakersfield man and injured his passenger.

CHP Officer Robert Rodriguez says the driver of the big-rig on Driver Road was unable to take evasive action Wednesday morning and struck the passenger sedan’s driver side door on Pond Road. Alcohol and drugs do not appear to be factors in this collision.
