He and his training officer were en route to Lake Isabella when the 18-year-old drunk driver crossed the center line and struck the patrol car. Deputy Wilson suffered several head and internal injuries and was pronounced dead upon arrival to Kern Medical Center.
Deputy Wilson had only been with the agency for six weeks and had been in law enforcement for 18 months. He was survived by his wife, two daughters, parents, and two brothers.
