LAKEPORT, Calif. – A young Kelseyville man died Tuesday morning when his vehicle went off the highway and hit a tree.
Joshua William Moore, 26, was killed in the crash, according to Lt. Corey Paulich of the Lake County Sheriff’s Office.

Moore, who the CHP said was not wearing his seat belt, was pronounced dead at the scene.
The CHP said the crash’s cause remains under investigation.
“It is unknown at this time if alcohol or drug intoxication was a factor,” the report said.
