PHOENIX — One man was killed and another was injured Monday afternoon when two vehicles collided on a Phoenix street, authorities said.

Davis died after being taken to a hospital.
The other driver was also hospitalized. His injuries were not considered life-threatening.
Preliminary information suggests Davis was heading north on 19th Avenue near Virginia Avenue, alongside the Encanto 9-Hole Golf Course, when he drifted into oncoming traffic for unknown reasons, police said.
It hasn’t been determined if impairment was a factor. The investigation is ongoing.
No other information was made available.
