An 18-year-old man visiting California from the Virgin Islands was identified as the person killed Tuesday night in a rollover crash that injured three others in southern Mendocino County, according to the CHP.

James Zion, 18, was pronounced dead at the scene. He and Yirakmeal Henry, 18, also from the Virgin Islands, were not wearing seat belts when the SUV they were riding in crashed at about 6 p.m. on the highway about five miles north of Cloverdale, near Geysers Road, according to a CHP report.

They were heading north in a 2001 Mitsubishi Montero driven by Shakela Hill, 24, of Ukiah when she lost control of the vehicle for unknown reasons, the report said. The vehicle overturned, careening across the highway and eventually coming to rest on its side on the southbound shoulder.

Both men were ejected from the vehicle. With major injuries, Hill was trapped and freed by firefighters. Another passenger, Lynesia Richards, 18, of Ukiah, also had major injuries and was able to free herself.

Henry, Richards and Hill were taken to Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital.
