25-Year-Old Woman Identified in Fatal Collision Near Elmira Tuesday: UPDATED

ELMIRA, CA- The Solano County coroner's office has identified the victim of a vehicle collision near Vacaville on Tuesday morning as 25-year-old Brandy Bauman. Reports have said that Bauman is a resident of Camino in El Dorado County, however, Dixon residents call her a local.

Michael Morris reported on Facebook that Bauman grew up in Dixon, stating, "I remember going to CAJ and Tremont with her, pretty sure she was at the high school for a year or two."

"Sad news whenever someone dies so tragically but it hits you a little harder when you know them," said Morris.

Bauman was driving a Honda Prelude south on Lewis Road approaching Fry Road in unincorporated Solano County around 10:20 a.m.

Tuesday when she failed to stop at a stop sign, California Highway Patrol Officer David Harvey said. The Honda was hit on the left side by a Chevrolet Silverado driving west by a 37-year-old Tracy man who did not have a stop sign on Fry Road.

Bauman was pronounced dead at the scene at 11:14 a.m., according to the coroner's office.

The Silverado driver was not injured. The CHP is investigating whether alcohol or drugs were a factor in the collision, Harvey said.
