Teen driver injured in crash on Nautilus Street

An 18-year-old driver was treated for broken bones after his car struck the rear of an unoccupied parked vehicle late April 14 in La Jolla.

San Diego police said the man was driving a 2005 Mazda sedan that hit a 2008 BMW sedan around 10:20 p.m. in the 1800 block of Nautilus Street.

The Police Department’s Traffic Division is investigating the crash. Alcohol was not considered a factor.

Coronavirus by the numbers

ZIP code is the code of residence, which may not be the location of exposure.
