Both drivers were transported with serious injuries to Grant Hospital where Mr. Davis was pronounced dead. The other driver was later upgraded from critical to stable condition.
It is not clear what caused the deceased to travel left of center. It appears that drugs or alcohol may have played a factor. The deceased was tested for drugs and alcohol, results unknown at this time.
Neither driver was wearing a seat belt according to the police report.
