HEMET, CA (September 10, 2024) — A devastating head-on collision in Hemet on Sunday evening resulted in the death of a 21-year-old woman and injuries to two others. The accident happened around 9 p.m. on Mountain Avenue, as reported by the Hemet Police Department.

Stephanie Morales of San Jacinto was driving a Kia Forte westbound when she inadvertently drifted into the eastbound lanes. At the same time, a Hyundai Ioniq was approaching from the opposite direction. Despite the Hyundai driver’s efforts to swerve and avoid the collision, both vehicles collided head-on.

Paramedics rushed to the scene, finding Morales in grave condition. She was transported to a nearby hospital but tragically passed away less than an hour later. Investigations revealed that Morales was not wearing a seatbelt at the time of the head-on crash in Hemet.

The Hyundai’s driver and passenger sustained moderate injuries and were hospitalized but are expected to recover fully. The roadway remained closed for six hours to facilitate the police investigation.The community is encouraged to provide any additional information by contacting HPD’s Traffic Bureau at (951) 765-2400.
