A solo vehicle collision occurred late last night in Lemon Cove, CA, resulting in significant damage to the vehicle involved but fortunately no reported injuries. The incident took place at approximately 10:41 PM at 32913 State Route 198, where witnesses observed four individuals fleeing the scene shortly after the crash.

Emergency services, including the California Highway Patrol, promptly responded to the incident. Upon arrival, they found the vehicle had sustained major front-end damage, rendering it undriveable. A tow truck was called to the scene to remove the vehicle, which had landed in a nearby yard.

Witnesses reported seeing two females and two male juveniles running away from the vehicle immediately after the collision. The California Highway Patrol is actively investigating the identities of these individuals, as they may be connected to the incident.

Interestingly, during the collision, the vehicle struck a utility pole, which was found to be intact and did not require replacement. This detail is crucial as it indicates that the impact did not compromise the pole's structural integrity, minimizing potential disruptions to local utility services.

As the investigation unfolds, authorities have reached out to family members of the vehicle's driver. However, they reported that they do not know who was operating the vehicle at the time of the accident. This adds another layer of complexity to the ongoing inquiry.

The California Highway Patrol is urging anyone with information regarding the incident or the individuals who fled the scene to come forward. As of now, traffic in the area remains unaffected, and all lanes on State Route 198 are open.

This incident highlights the importance of road safety and the responsibilities of drivers involved in collisions. The California Highway Patrol continues to encourage safe driving practices and adherence to traffic laws to prevent such incidents in the future.
