A crash on westbound Highway 91 west of Corona has snarled traffic through the city, CHP and Cal Trans report.
A work truck and at least two other vehicles collided about 3:55 a.m. Monday, June 1, near Coal Canyon Road, a CHP incident log shows.
The truck spun out and was blocking lanes while two other vehicles were knocked off the freeway and went down an embankment — one flipping several times and landing back on its wheels, a witness told CHP.
The driver of the vehicle that flipped was able to talk to a witness. A SigAlert was issued and trucks with tow cables were summoned, the log shows.
Paramedics were called but information on the severity of injuries was unavailable.
Several lanes were temporarily blocked while emergency workers helped the victims and westbound traffic was backed up past McKinley Avenue on Corona’s eastern edge, a Cal Trans traffic map shows.
