MISSION HILLS, CA (March 26, 2019) – Two young women were injured in a semi-truck accident Tuesday morning on the 5 Freeway.
 
Officials responded to the highway collision around 8:20 AM. Authorities then arrived just north of Fernando Mission Boulevard soon after.
 
Reports indicate that a mid-sized sedan slammed into the rear of an 18-wheeler semi truck for unknown reasons. Moreover, the sedan got stuck underneath the trailer and sustained substantial damages as a result.
 
Paramedics were immediately called to the scene for needed medical attention. Two female occupants had to be extricated from the sedan due to the impact. They were eventually transported to nearby hospitals for further treatment. Their current medical status had not been disclosed.

Road distractions are incredibly dangerous when operating a vehicle. Always keep a safe distance between yourself and the vehicle in front of you. Scan your surroundings and be attentive at all times, as doing so can prevent yourself and others from being involved in an accident.
