Excessive speed along a switchback dirt road led to yesterday's death of a 21-year-old Colton man who was off-roading with a passenger near the Cajon Pass, according to California Highway Patrol investigators.

"They were out there driving on a fire road, and they took a corner ... too fast," Officer Hope Maxon said of the 7:07 p.m. crash that killed Alan R. Delgado and shook up 24-year-old Michelle Saavedra of Rialto.

Delgado was driving a blue-gray 1981 Datsun king-cab pickup truck along Cleghorn Fire Road nearly two miles east of Interstate 15.

"It rolled off the ... dirt roadway and collided with a dirt embankment," Maxon said.

Delgado suffered head injuries. He was wearing seat belts, Maxon said, but officers haven't determined whether the belts were working properly.
 
My heart go out to the family. I did Cleighorn couple times. Too close to home. It could be anybody.
