PALMDALE – A 41-year-old man was killed Thursday evening when his vehicle flipped over in the parking lot of a Palmdale shopping center.
Shannon Kendell Roy of Palmdale died in the single vehicle crash, which was reported around 8:40 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 25, in the area of 10th Street West and Technology Drive, according to coroner’s Assistant Chief Ed Winter.
The overturned vehicle was found in the Smart and Final store parking lot at 39212 10th Street West in Palmdale, according to a news release from the Palmdale Sheriff’s Station.
