A traffic collision occurred today in Ontario, California, involving two vehicles: a silver Kia Forte and a white pickup truck. The incident took place at the intersection of the eastbound lanes of Interstate 10 and Milliken Avenue around 4:07 PM. Emergency services responded quickly to the scene, where the Kia Forte was severely damaged and deemed undriveable.
The collision blocked traffic in the area, creating a hazardous situation for motorists. While the condition of the white pickup truck was not detailed, it was confirmed to be involved in the incident.
