All Lanes Reopen after Big-Rig Crash on 91 Freeway in Corona

Four vehicles, including two big rigs, were involved in a crash Saturday that blocked lanes on the 91 Freeway in Corona, according to fire officials.

The crash was first reported by the California Highway Patrol at 7:50 a.m. on the eastbound 91, east of Lincoln Avenue.

A SigAlert was issued at 8:14 a.m. as the left four lanes remained blocked by the crash. According to Caltrans, the far right lane was left open while the crash was investigated.

Firefighters found two big rigs, a smaller box truck and a passenger vehicle involved in the crash, said Corona Fire Battalion Chief Jeremy Verderber. Lanes were blocked for nearly three hours, primarily due to the big rigs obstructing traffic.

Two people were taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries, Verderber said.

The CHP reported that all lanes were open at 11 a.m.
