June 1, 2012 (Ramona) – Fred Ulysses Hammett, 70, an attorney from Ramona, died Wednesday in a head-on collision that also claimed the life of a mother and her three young children.
Hammett was in Texas to attend his sister’s memorial service. He was driving a rental SUV when he was struck head-on by a Ford pickup truck. The pickup was driving the wrong direction on I-20 in Mesquite, Texas and reportedly almost struck a Texas trooper’s car before hitting Hammett’s vehicle.
