CLEARLAKE, Calif. – A two-vehicle collision – one a boat, the other a pickup – closed down a portion of Lakeshore Drive in Clearlake Thursday afternoon.


Clearlake Police officers responded to the collision on Lakeshore Drive at Emory Avenue at 3:20 p.m., according to Sgt. Tim Hobbs.


Hobbs said 43-year-old Ronald Tobey was driving a 2000 GMC Sierra and towing a 2006 Skeeter Bass Boat westbound on Lakeshore Drive, with Consuelo Castro, 31, driving a 2005 Toyota Tundra southbound on Emory Avenue.


Castro failed to stop at the posted stop sign and ran into the side of the boat being towed by Tobey, Hobbs said.


There were not any reported injuries, he added.


The Tundra sustained major damage and the boat and trailer sustained moderate damage, according to Hobbs.


Lakeshore Drive between Emory Avenue and the Corkman's Clipper restaurant was shut down for approximately one hour while the boat and vehicle were being removed from the roadway, Hobbs said.
