Driver killed in crash on Vasco Road identified
Authorities on Monday identified a person who died in a single-car crash on a rural Contra Costa County road last week.
Discovery Bay resident Jason Rodgers, 54, died Wednesday night after losing control on Vasco Road at the Camino Diablo intersection in Brentwood. The Contra Costa County Coroner’s Office identified him publicly.
According to the CHP, Rodgers drove north on Vasco Road when he for some reason drove into a traffic pole on the southeast corner at Camino Diablo.
He died at the scene.
The CHP has not said what caused the wreck. The investigation is continuing and the agency is awaiting toxicology tests that normally take six weeks.
