Phoenix, AZ (April 10, 2020) – A crash left one person dead on Friday evening in Phoenix.
Troopers with the Arizona Department of Public Safety shut down the eastbound lanes of Loop 101 shortly before 6:00 p.m., just west of State Route 51. The lanes were reopened a little over an hour later. It’s unclear how the crash occurred at this time.
The Phoenix Police Department is still investigating and has not released the victims’ information.
