A traffic collision on Interstate 5 (I-5) in Los Angeles, CA, caused significant traffic disruptions today. The incident occurred around 12:40 AM near the Colorado Street off-ramp, involving two vehicles: a black Tesla with rear damage and a Tesla Cybertruck.

Emergency response teams were dispatched to the scene to manage the situation. A tow truck successfully removed the damaged black Tesla, but attempts to tow the Tesla Cybertruck were unsuccessful, leaving it on-site.
