Hit and run on I-880 in Oakland flips big rig, killing driver

Last Updated on December 27, 2022 by C-CAR

A hit-and-run crash on Interstate 880 in Oakland flipped a semi-truck early Friday morning, igniting the big rig and killing the trapped trapped driver.

At about1 a.m., a white Ford Crown Victoria and another dark-colored sedan were speeding southbound on I-880 near Broadway. The Crown Victoria car tried to pass the International big rig, smashed into the truck’s driver’s side.

The semi hit the highway barrier, flipped and went up in flams. The truck’s driver was trapped inside. He burned to death. The driver of the Crown Victoria was picked up by a different car. Police have yet to make an arrest.
