A multi-vehicle collision occurred early this morning on the northbound lanes of Interstate 605, near the junction with Interstate 5 in Santa Fe Springs, CA. The incident took place around 4:12 AM and involved at least two vehicles: a white Chevrolet truck and an unknown vehicle.

Emergency services responded quickly to the scene, where the vehicles were blocking the slow lanes and the high-occupancy vehicle lane. Debris was reported across all lanes, causing traffic to be halted temporarily.

By approximately 4:37 AM, all lanes were cleared, and traffic was released, allowing vehicles to resume their journeys. While the exact number of injuries remains unknown, emergency personnel effectively managed the situation to restore normal traffic conditions.
