A hit-and-run incident occurred today on the westbound side of State Route 58 at the Union Avenue off-ramp in Bakersfield, CA. The collision involved two vehicles: a black Toyota Camry and a white Caravan. Reports indicate that the white Caravan rear-ended the black Camry and then fled the scene shortly after the impact.
Emergency services responded swiftly to the incident, which was reported around 10:52 PM. The black Toyota Camry was determined to be not drivable, leading to a request for a tow truck to remove the vehicle from the roadway. Emergency personnel worked to ensure the area remained safe for other motorists.
Traffic in the vicinity experienced some disruption, particularly in the slow lane where the black Camry was partially positioned. A tow truck was dispatched to the scene, with an estimated arrival time of approximately 25 to 30 minutes. The tow truck was expected to assist in clearing the vehicle, allowing traffic to resume normal flow.
Fortunately, there were no reported injuries resulting from this incident. Authorities are actively working to clear the area as quickly as possible. Motorists are advised to exercise caution when traveling through the area as cleanup efforts continue.
