A traffic collision involving two vehicles occurred early this morning on Interstate 680 North near the Monument Boulevard off-ramp in Pleasant Hill, CA. The incident was reported at approximately 1:27 AM when a black sedan was found blocking multiple lanes of traffic. Witnesses noted a motorcycle prior to the collision, but no injuries were reported.
Emergency services responded promptly, arriving at the scene by 1:48 AM. Upon assessment, it was confirmed that the black sedan was facing sideways and obstructing lanes three and four. A second vehicle, identified as a silver Chrysler, was located nearby, also involved in the incident. Both vehicles sustained damage, but fortunately, none of the individuals involved required medical attention.
As emergency units worked to clear the scene, traffic was temporarily disrupted, with lanes one through four blocked for a period. By 2:19 AM, all lanes were reopened, allowing traffic to resume its normal flow. A tow truck was dispatched to remove the vehicles, and by 6:52 AM, both the black sedan and the silver Chrysler had been towed from the area.
The California Highway Patrol conducted a thorough investigation and ensured that the roadway was safe for motorists before clearing the scene. Witnesses reported seeing the motorcycle prior to the collision, but it remains unclear if it was directly involved in the incident. The motorcycle was not located at the scene, and no further information about its status has been released.
