Three-Vehicle Crash on Interstate 5 Left Several Injured
WOODLAND, CA (December 29, 2021) – A multi-vehicle crash on Interstate 5 left one person dead and 5 injured Wednesday night.
Initially, the series of collisions started when a big rig stalled a few miles ahead near the Highway 113 off-ramp.
As a result, the traffic slowed down in the area with cars stopping behind the truck.
According to the investigators, a Ford Expedition towing a trailer rear-ended a stopped Volkswagen.
Tragically, the passenger of the Volkswagen died at the scene and the driver was left hospitalized in Vacaville.
Meanwhile, five people from the Expedition, including a 1-year-old and an 8-year-old received minor injuries.
