According to CHP Officer Chris Blondon, at about 11 a.m. Tuesday, Robert Miller, 23, (left) and Daniel Sheppard, 23, (right) both of Idyllwild, were traveling east on South Circle Drive in Miller’s 1987 Acura Legend. Diana Torrez, 41, of Idyllwild pulled out from Marion View Drive to cross South Circle onto Tahquitz Dr. in her 1999 Toyota Corolla. Torrez didn’t see Miller and Sheppard, and Miller was unable to stop when Torrez pulled out in front of him. No one was injured in the crash and no transport needed. Photo by Jenny Kirchner
