At least one person died early Friday in a fiery crash in the Mendocino County village of Navarro, according to a preliminary report by the CHP.

A vehicle went off the road, struck a tree and caught fire about 3:55 a.m. at 255 Wendling St. off Highway 128, according to the CHP traffic incident website. The crash occurred near the Navarro General Store, roughly 40 miles northwest of Cloverdale.

The CHP listed the crash as a fatality and said the vehicle became “fully engulfed” in flames.
