SAN JOSE – A man died last week of injuries he suffered in a crash nearly a month earlier in San Jose, police said.
The two-vehicle collision happened just before 1 p.m. on Dec. 6 in the 1100 block of Lincoln Avenue, San Jose police spokesperson Stacie Shih said in a news release.
The man was driving a 2015 Volkswagen Golf northbound on Lincoln Avenue when he suffered a medical emergency and rear-ended a woman in a 2015 Audi A5, Shih said.
The crash left the man with life-threatening injuries. Shih said he was taken to an area hospital and stabilized, but he died of his injuries on Jan. 15.
The Santa Clara County Medical Examiner-Coroner’s Office will release the man’s identity after it is confirmed and his next of kin is notified.
The death marked the 49th traffic fatality of 2024 on city streets, according to Shih.
Anyone with information related to the case can contact Detective Ryan Leslie at 408-277-4654 or 4264@sanjoseca.gov.
