A suspected drunk driver went onto the shoulder of Highway 111 near Palm Springs and rear-ended a parked truck, killing a man and injuring two children inside, the California Highway Patrol said Saturday. The collision happened at about 7:05 p.m. Friday in an unincorporated area south of Overture Drive. Richard A. Mann, 39, from Beaumont was driving a 2018 Chevy Silverado northbound while a 2006 GMC Sierra that was out of gas was parked on the right shoulder. For reasons still under investigation, CHP said, Mann veered to the right, rear-ending the GMC.
