A traffic collision involving two vehicles occurred today at 15001 Chadron Avenue in Gardena, CA, leading to significant traffic disruptions in the area. The incident was reported around 9:43 PM and resulted in one vehicle being rendered undrivable, requiring a specialized towing approach due to its "bo axle."

Emergency services responded promptly, focusing on scene control and traffic management to alleviate congestion. The collision also affected access to the adjacent north-south alley between Lemoli and Chadron, resulting in lane closures and limited access for vehicles.
