At 11:47 pm Monday night, emergency personnel from the East Contra Costa Fire Protection District responded to a single vehicle roll-over accident on Balfour Road east of Deer Valley Road, according to Interim Battalion Chief Ross Macumber. The accident took the life of a 51-year-old Hispanic woman from Tracy.
The Contra Costa Coroner office identified her as Ivette Montes.
“As our units were leaving CHP was actively investigating,” Macumber stated.
According to Officer Nathan Johnson of the CHP Contra Costa office, the victim was “partially ejected and declared deceased at the scene. Although it’s not been ruled out, alcohol does not appear to be a factor at this time.”

So sad. Let this be a lesson to all you A-Hole drivers in Antioch going 70+ mph on Lone Tree because you’re late to meet your drug dealer.
Our hearts at Kaiser Antioch Hospital are very heavy. Ivette did a double shift and was going home. Ivette as an RN had cared for hundreds of people and was a sweet, smart, beautiful and kind person with a heart of gold.
Thank you for adding that info, Kelly. How tragic for the family and this world from losing what seems to be a nice lady. Bless her family’s hearts.
