Red Bluff, California (January 2, 2021) – Nathanael Armus, 29, of Red Bluff and Amber Armus have been identified as the two people who were injured last week Saturday in a traffic accident in Red Bluff.
The crash happened at about 2:30 p.m. Saturday, December 26, on State Route 36E, just west of Paynes Creek, the California Highway Patrol reported.
According to the CHP, a 2003 Hyundai Santa Fe, driven by Henry Cardona, 19, of Red Bluff, was heading westbound on State Route 36E while a 2019 Mitsubishi Outlander, driven by Nathanael Armus, was traveling behind the Hyundai.
The Mitsubishi then traveled into the eastbound lane to pass the Hyundai. As the Mitsubishi attempted to overtake the Hyundai, however, the Hyundai drifted to the left and entered the eastbound lane.
Nathanael Armus tried to avoid the collision by veering to the left but ended up off the road.
The Mitsubishi re-entered the highway and collided with the Hyundai. After the impact, the Mitsubishi rolled over multiple times and landed on its roof. The Hyundai veered off the roadway and crashed into a large boulder.
Nathanael Armus sustained a laceration to his head while his passenger, Amber Armus, suffered major injuries. Both patients and another occupant in the Mitsubishi, a 5-year-old boy, were transported to Mercy Medical Center in Redding for treatment.
Cardona was not injured in the crash.
