El Cajon, CA (October 29, 2024) – A solo vehicle accident occurred early Tuesday morning on SR-78 at mile marker 48. Emergency responders were alerted to the incident at approximately 6:32 AM, prompting a swift response from local authorities.
Reports indicate that a silver Ford Escape overturned, coming to rest partially on its side and partially on its roof.

Fortunately, they were able to self-extricate from the vehicle before emergency services arrived.
