A traffic collision involving two vehicles occurred early this morning on the westbound Interstate 210, just west of Citrus Avenue in Azusa, California. The incident took place around 3:45 AM and involved a red Ford Mustang and a white Scion, with the Scion reported to have overturned during the accident.
Emergency services, including the California Highway Patrol (CHP) and local fire department, responded quickly to the scene. First responders confirmed that both vehicles had come to rest on the right shoulder of the highway. While one individual sustained minor bleeding, there were no serious injuries reported.
To assist with traffic flow, a semi-truck stopped to block traffic and provide support at the scene. Towing services were requested for both vehicles, as they were not drivable following the collision. A tow truck was estimated to arrive shortly to facilitate the removal of the vehicles.
Traffic management was a priority during this incident. Initially, the slow lane of the westbound Interstate 210 was blocked, causing some delays for motorists. However, by 4:54 AM, all lanes were reported to be open, indicating that the situation was being effectively managed and cleared.
The prompt response from emergency services ensured that the scene was handled efficiently, minimizing the impact on traffic and ensuring the safety of all involved. This incident highlights the importance of road safety and the need for drivers to remain vigilant, especially during early morning hours when visibility may be reduced.
Both vehicles have since been towed from the scene, and normal traffic flow has resumed. Authorities will continue to investigate the circumstances surrounding the collision to determine any further actions that may be necessary.
