AZUSA, Los Angeles County, Calif., Nov. 10, 2026 — A multi-vehicle crash shut down lanes on westbound Interstate 210 near Rockvale Avenue early Monday morning, November 9, according to the California Highway Patrol.
The CHP said the collision was first reported just before 5 a.m. on westbound I-210, just west of Rockvale Avenue, in Azusa. A driver reported being rear-ended, and radio traffic indicated as many as three vehicles may have been involved. One vehicle reportedly spun out and came to rest blocking the slow lane. A gray Tesla Model 3 was among the vehicles involved, along with a black Acura sedan and a white Lexus sedan, which were reported stopped on the right shoulder.
A caller told dispatchers her airbags had deployed and that she was unable to move her vehicle, though she declined ambulance transport. Firefighters were sent to roll as a precaution, and the Los Angeles County Fire Department logged the response under its own incident number. The California Highway Patrol's Freeway Service Patrol also responded to assist before later closing out its portion of the call. A tow truck was requested for at least one vehicle involved.
The cause of the crash remains under investigation by the CHP. We wish the injured a complete recovery.
