A traffic collision involving three vehicles occurred early this morning on the southbound lanes of Interstate 110 near El Segundo Boulevard in Los Angeles, CA.

Fortunately, all individuals involved in the incident declined medical assistance, and there were no reported injuries. Emergency services responded quickly to the scene, effectively managing the situation. A tow truck was called to remove the vehicles, which were obstructing the slow lanes of the highway.
