Two Hollister men died in a head-on collision south of Gilroy June 2, according to authorities.
About 8am, a 53-year-old man driving a Nissan Altima was traveling about 50-55 mph southbound on Frazier Lake Road, reads a press release from the California Highway Patrol. The Altima was approaching a Nissan Frontier, which was traveling northbound on Frazier Lake Road just south of Bloomfield Avenue. The Frontier, driven by a 37-year-old man, was traveling about 50-55 mph.

Both drivers suffered fatal injuries and were pronounced dead at the scene, according to the CHP. Authorities have not yet released their names.
