EASTVALE — A fiery head-on accident involving a wrong-way SUV driver and a big rig early Wednesday morning on the northbound Interstate 15 prompted the closure of a stretch of the freeway in Eastvale.
The crash was reported about 3:30 a.m. near Cantu-Galleano Ranch Road, according to the California Highway Patrol.
The SUV was traveling southbound in the northbound lanes when it slammed head-on into the big rig, causing the semi and its trailer to become fully engulfed in flames, the CHP said.
All northbound lanes of the freeway in the area were closed around 4 a.m., and drivers were urged to find alternate routes, according to Caltrans.
About 4:40 a.m., the CHP reopened the No. 1 and 2 lanes of the freeway.
It was unclear if anyone was injured in the accident.
