One dead, one injured in crash east of Lathrop on Highway 116

A Highway Patrol investigator said the car was eastbound when it partially traveled off the south side of Highway 116. The driver over-corrected and the car returned to the road, skidded off the opposite (north) side and into a ditch. The car then rotated 180 degrees and came to a stop on its wheels. The vehicle was demolished.
