Rancho Cucamonga, CA (November 7, 2024) – A multi-vehicle collision occurred early Thursday morning on Interstate 10 East near Euclid Avenue, resulting in injuries and blocking the fast lane. The crash was reported around 6:42 a.m., with the California Highway Patrol (CHP) responding to the scene.
The collision involved several vehicles, including a green Toyota Tacoma, a white truck, a burgundy van, and a gray Acura sedan. CHP initially categorized the incident as a non-injury collision but later upgraded it, indicating that injuries were present and emergency medical services were en route. Traffic was heavily impacted as the fast lane remained blocked while responders worked to clear the scene and relocate the vehicles to the roadside.
Tow services were requested for a gray Toyota Tacoma, which sustained moderate front-end damage. The cause of the collision remains under investigation, as CHP works to determine the events leading to this multi-vehicle crash.
Our thoughts are with those affected, and we hope for a full recovery for anyone injured in this incident.
