A traffic collision on Interstate 15 North in Murrieta, CA, caused significant delays during the evening commute today. The incident involved two vehicles: a grey BMW and an unknown vehicle. The collision was reported around 8:04 PM, with the grey BMW confirmed to be driveable, while arrangements were made for the towing of the second vehicle.
Emergency services quickly arrived on the scene and implemented temporary lane management to control traffic flow.

By 8:20 PM, traffic was reported to be blocked in the fourth lane, further contributing to delays.
Tow trucks were dispatched to assist with the removal of the vehicles involved in the collision.

Emergency responders worked diligently to manage the scene and minimize disruption to traffic.
Motorists traveling on Interstate 15 North should anticipate lingering delays as the situation is resolved. Drivers are advised to exercise caution and remain alert while navigating through the area.
