A traffic incident occurred today on the eastbound lanes of Interstate 210 near the Seco Street off-ramp in Pasadena, CA, when a red Infiniti vehicle went down an embankment. Emergency services responded promptly to the scene at approximately 10:56 AM. Fortunately, there were no injuries reported as a result of the incident.
Witnesses alerted authorities after seeing the vehicle off the roadway. The California Highway Patrol arrived shortly thereafter to assess the situation. By 11:43 AM, a tow truck was dispatched to recover the vehicle, which was located approximately 50 feet down the embankment.
To ensure the safety of both the tow crew and passing motorists, a traffic break was requested around 12:21 PM. This allowed the tow truck to safely hook up the vehicle without further complications.

Drivers in the area were advised to exercise caution as traffic was temporarily affected during the recovery operation. The incident underscores the importance of road safety and the swift response of emergency services in managing unexpected situations on California highways.
