Three Suffer Life-Threatening Injuries After Four Car Crash on I-805

Three people suffered life-threatening injuries after an early morning crash on Interstate 805 that partially closed down the freeway, officials said.

The crash happened shortly before 4 a.m. Sunday on Interstate 805 near La Jolla Village Drive, where the California Highway Patrol said four vehicles were overturned.

One person was trapped inside one of the cars at one point, CHP officials said.

As officers worked the scene, they shut down three lanes of the freeway, bringing the morning traffic to a crawl.

The patients were taken to Scripps La Jolla. 

There is no word yet on how the crash may have occurred or the status of the victims’ injuries.
