Route 125 Roll-Over Accident Backs Up Freeway
At least one person is in the hospital following a roll-over crash on Sunday.
A crash on southbound state Route 125 sent at least one person to the hospital and blocked traffic Sunday.
The crash happened about 1:20 p.m. just south of Navajo Road when a vehicle swerved across four lanes and overturned in the middle lanes, a California Highway Patrol dispatcher said.
Traffic on the freeway was backed up as the vehicle blocked the two middle lanes. Motorists were only able to pass in the left-most lane, the dispatcher said. The La Mesa Police Department also shut down the onramp from Navajo Road to southbound 125.
