Rancho Cucamonga, CA – Fatal Traffic Collision on Interstate 15 Freeway
Rancho Cucamonga, CA (December 10, 2018) On the morning of December 9th, a fatal traffic collision occurred on the Interstate 15 Freeway near Etiwanda Avenue. According to authorities, a 2013 Toyota Prius rear-ended a 2005 Ford Escape around 5:00 a.m. The impact of the collision pushed the Escape into the center barrier and the Prius into the outer lanes. A 2005 Honda Odyssey then crashed into the Prius, which pushed the Prius further into lane number three where a semi-truck rear-ended it, causing the driver of the Prius to eject out of the vehicle while it rolled down an embankment. A piece of debris hit and shattered the front window of a 2015 Toyota Sienna. When emergency crews arrived at the scene, they found the driver of the Toyota Prius dead. It’s unclear whether any of the other drivers obtained injuries. The police are currently investigating the cause of the accident and who should be held liable.
