Just after midnight following Halloween evening, police say they responded the crash that was located on the railroad tracks at Ohio Avenue and Fountain Mesa Road. Officers say the car that crashed was the only vehicle involved in the accident.

Once they got to the scene, FPD says they found the dead driver in the car.
