Three individuals lost their lives, and a fourth sustained severe injuries in an early-morning accident on the 10 Freeway. This incident occurred when a vehicle, evading California Highway Patrol (CHP) officers, hit a concrete barrier in Baldwin Park.
Authorities suspect that the driver was intoxicated during the crash. The car involved, a 2011 Toyota Corolla, crashed near Francisquito Avenue at approximately 4 a.m. after a high-speed chase. Attempts to stop the vehicle for reckless driving failed as the driver sped away.
The driver lost control at the Francisquito Avenue off-ramp and collided with a wall. Authorities pronounced the driver dead at the scene, while two passengers succumbed to their injuries at different hospitals. A fourth person remains hospitalized with significant injuries.
Police withheld the identities of those who died. They mentioned one victim was a 20-year-old man. A CHP spokesperson did not immediately respond to further inquiries from reporters.
