A traffic collision involving two vehicles occurred early this morning on the northbound lanes of Interstate 605, just south of Alondra Boulevard in Cerritos, California. The incident was first reported at approximately 12:51 AM, when a vehicle collision was blocking multiple lanes.
Emergency responders quickly arrived at the scene, confirming that two vehicles were involved, including a gray Nissan SUV and one unidentified vehicle. Reports indicated that the gray SUV was facing sideways, contributing to the blockage of the slow lanes. Fortunately, no injuries were reported as a result of the collision.
