OAKLAND, CA — A man who died after crashing his minivan into a tree on the Dutton Avenue off-ramp from eastbound Interstate Highway 580 in Oakland early Tuesday morning has been identified by the Alameda County coroner's bureau as 24-year-old Vantrelle Rutherford of Stockton.

The collision was reported at 12:22 a.m. Tuesday and Rutherford was pronounced dead at the scene.
