A traffic collision involving two vehicles occurred late last night on the eastbound lanes of Interstate 210 near North Lake Avenue in Pasadena, CA. The incident took place around 11:17 PM and involved a gray Honda and a white Kia, both of which were blocking traffic on the freeway.
Emergency services, including the Pasadena Fire Department, responded promptly to the scene. The driver of the white Kia sustained a head injury and was suspected of being intoxicated at the time of the collision.

The Pasadena Fire Department arrived shortly after the incident was reported, but initial assessments indicated that they were unable to locate any additional vehicles involved.
