Overview
- The victim was identified as Jose Cuevas, 16, a Harbor City resident and Narbonne High School student.
- CHP says he accidentally fell about 75 feet after climbing over a concrete barrier on the Pomona Street on-ramp to westbound I-80 near the Carquinez Bridge.
- Officers responding around 3:30 a.m. to a large illegal sideshow in Crockett found him below the ramp, and he was pronounced dead at the scene.
- Supervisor Shanelle Scales-Preston plans a roundtable with CHP, Caltrans, the sheriff, the district attorney and public works to consider tools such as license-plate readers, cameras and roadway changes.
- The site has a history of sideshow-related falls, and some jurisdictions have recently raised fines and penalties for takeovers, reflecting a broader push for deterrence.
