A multi-vehicle collision occurred early this morning in the City of Industry, CA, involving four vehicles, including a white Toyota Corolla that ended up in an embankment. The incident was reported at approximately 3:00 AM on State Route 60 East near the Azusa Avenue North on-ramp.
Emergency services quickly responded to the scene, confirming the collision just minutes after the initial report. By 3:04 AM, it was established that one vehicle had gone off the road and into the embankment. As the situation unfolded, it became clear that two vehicles were confirmed in the embankment, prompting the request for additional towing services.
By 3:11 AM, all lanes of traffic were halted as emergency personnel arrived to manage the situation. Fortunately, no injuries were reported in connection with the collision, and there were no immediate hazards following the incident. The responding units worked efficiently to clear the scene, and by 3:24 AM, the incident was officially resolved.
The collision resulted in damage to approximately 50 feet of chain-link fencing along the right side of the embankment, but no further hazards were identified. A tow truck was called to assist with the removal of the vehicles involved, although details regarding the final disposition of the vehicles have not been disclosed.
Motorists traveling on State Route 60 East should be aware that traffic was temporarily impacted due to this incident, but the roadway has since been cleared. The California Highway Patrol continues to investigate the circumstances surrounding the collision, particularly the high speeds reported prior to the crash.
This incident serves as a reminder for drivers to remain vigilant and adhere to speed limits, especially in areas where road conditions may change unexpectedly.
