3 killed, 4 injured in highway street-race crash

The collision on the southbound 5 Freeway at Garfield Avenue took place just after midnight, California Highway Patrol Officer Francisco Villalobos.

The CHP said that alcohol and drugs were not believed to have been a factor in the crash. Police said one person was killed when a auto lost control on the southbound lanes of the I-5.

The tractor trailer flew into the air and hit a gray Nissan, shearing the top of the Nissan off. The tractor trailer continued out of control and crashed onto a red Ford Explorer that was traveling northbound, and the tractor trailer immediately became engulfed in flames, the CHP said. The UPS truck slammed into the center divider, then flipped over into the northbound lanes and collided with several oncoming vehicles, causing an explosion, said Sgt. Luis Mendoza of the California Highway Patrol.
