A 32-year-old skateboarder is dead after being hit by a pickup truck in Clearlake. On Monday morning, Adam Huskey was riding his motorized skateboard on Emory Avenue south of Mullen Avenue when he was hit by the vehicle. Emergency personnel responded and Huskey was declared dead at the scene. The truck driver, 24-year-old Dillon Alan Mahoney, was arrested for vehicular manslaughter and booked into Lake County jail. It’s the second collision in Clearlake within a week that has resulted in the death of a pedestrian. Last Wednesday morning, 43-year-old James Torrey Jr. was hit by a drunk driver on Highway 53 just north of Dam Road, and died a short time after.
