Officers injured in crash while responding to separate collision in Pomona
A pair of CHP officers responding to a crash in Pomona were rushed to the hospital after another motorist struck them, officials say.
According to a CHP spokesperson, officers had responded to a two-vehicle collision on the southbound span of the 71 Freeway near Rio Rancho Road around 2:50 a.m. Sunday.
While they were responding to that crash, another vehicle hit their patrol car, the spokesperson confirmed.
“At least two officers were transported with unknown injuries,” CHP stated.
Their conditions are not known. Whether the driver who collided with the officers was injured was also undetermined.
It is unclear what caused either crash.
All southbound lanes of the freeway had been shut down in the immediate aftermath of the crash; a SigAlert that was issued for the affected stretch of freeway for an unknown duration had been canceled by 7:20 a.m.
