The Riverside County Coroner’s Office on Friday, Aug. 21, released the name of a Moreno Valley man who died early Thursday morning in a single-vehicle crash on Interstate 215 in Moreno Valley.
Dwight Howard Jr., 24, was pronounced dead 3:37 a.m. Thursday at the scene of the crash along the northbound lanes of Interstate 215 at the Highway 60 interchange.
A 23-year-old passenger, also from Moreno Valley, suffered moderate injuries in the crash, according to a California Highway Patrol news release.
The crash occurred when Howard was driving a 1996 Honda south on Interstate 215. For reasons still under investigation, Howard allowed the car to veer right, crashing into a concrete divider. The car was later seen high-centered on the divider.
