A Sutter Creek man lost his life in a single car accident Saturday in the Jackson Valley area. According to the California Highway Patrol, Craig Robinson, 43, was driving on Camanche Road south of Jackson Valley Rd when he lost control of his car on a curve in the road and struck a tree, resulting in fatal injuries. No one else was in the car with Robinson. And an Amador City man received only minor injuries Sunday when he was thrown from his motorcycle after being struck by a car at the intersection of Hwy 49 and Hwy 16. A CHP report says Verne Schartz, 55, was westbound on Hwy 16 on his Harley Davidson motorcycle when Martin Reynosa, 46, of Sacramento, failed to yield to oncoming traffic at the Hwy 49 stop sign. He proceeded through the intersection where he ran into Schartz who was ejected from his motorcycle. Schartz suffered minor injuries and was taken to Sutter Amador Hospital for treatment.
