A California teen's joyride in the back of a pickup truck quickly turned to tragedy on Friday night after the driver started performing a dangerous maneuver.
A pickup truck with four occupants - a male driver, a female passenger, identified as Paulina Verduzco Mendoza of Gilroy and two male passengers - was performing "donuts" in a parking lot on Friday night in the vicinity of 14900 block of Camden Avenue, according to NBCBayArea.
The maneuver caused Mendoza to fall out of the vehicle onto the pavement, where she was subsequently struck by the truck.
