Woman Ejected and Killed in Rear-End Collision near Golden State Avenue
BAKERSFIELD, CA (December 14, 2021) – A deadly two-car crash on Highway 178 claimed the life of Emily Dianne Hendricks, Wednesday.
The incident occurred around 2:45 p.m., just west of the split to Golden State Avenue. Crews responded to the scene shortly after receiving multiple dispatch calls in the area.
