TUCSON, Ariz. (KGUN) — Tucson Police say a three-vehicle wreck on Golf Links Road Tuesday was fatal.

According to TPD, 28-year-old Cheyenne Dakota-Dean Updyke was killed in the crash just after 2:30 p.m.

After conducting interviews, officers learned that Updyke entered an intersection on a red light and struck a US Postal Service delivery truck that was making a left turn onto Pantano. Updyke's vehicle then began to roll and struck a third vehicle before coming to a stop.

"Mr. Updyke was not wearing a seatbelt and was partially ejected from his vehicle. Prior to the collision, the white Expedition was seen running red lights and driving recklessly in the area," TPD said in a statement.

This investigation is ongoing.
