The vehicle’s other occupants were identified as a 41-year-old woman, a 7-year-old girl and a 4-year-old boy, according to the CHP. It wasn’t clear on Tuesday whether Patel and the passengers are related.Here’s what you can do to get your family and home ready for the heavy rain set to slam California starting on Wednesday, and how to stay safe during and after the storm.
