The California State Parks Ranger Station in Oceano says one person died Saturday after crashing his off-road vehicle, a Yamaha Rhino.

It happened just after 1:30p.m. at the Oceano Dunes State Park.

Brent Marshall, Chief Ranger at the Oceano Dunes, says the man rolled his vehicle, and was found outside of the roll cage when medics arrived. They believe he was driving without a seat belt or restraint. He was pronounced dead by medics on scene at 1:48p.m. Investigators say it appears the man lost control of his vehicle, but they don’t believe alcohol or drugs were involved at this time.
