A traffic collision occurred today on the eastbound lanes of Interstate 105 near the Central Avenue off-ramp in Los Angeles, CA. The incident involved two vehicles: a gray Pontiac and a black Toyota SUV. The collision was reported at approximately 7:41 AM.
Initial reports indicate that the gray Pontiac struck the black Toyota SUV, causing it to hit a concrete divider and spin out. The airbags in the Toyota SUV deployed, suggesting that the impact was significant. Emergency services responded promptly, with units arriving on the scene at 7:51 AM to provide assistance.
While the report does not specify the extent of injuries, the request for medical assistance indicates that there may have been injuries involved. Witnesses noted that the black Toyota SUV was traveling in the fast lane when it was struck by the gray Pontiac, leading to the vehicle's collision with the concrete barrier.
As emergency crews worked to clear the scene, traffic was affected, resulting in lane closures in the area. The condition of the gray Pontiac is unclear, but given the severity of the incident, it is likely that at least one vehicle was not drivable and may have required towing.
