Phoenix, AZ – Injuries Reported in Multi-Vehicle Accident on L-101 at 64th St
Phoenix, AZ (December 24, 2019) – An accident that involved one pickup truck and two SUVs closed the left lanes of Loop 101 on Tuesday afternoon and resulted in at least one serious injury.
Authorities said that the pickup truck, a dark-colored Toyota, collided with two other SUVs on Loop 101, also known as the Pima Freeway, around 6:30 p.m. Fire rescue units and emergency medical technicians were at the scene to assist the victims and take witness statements, though it’s unclear how many vehicles in total were involved in the crash.
Photos from the Arizona Department of Public Safety appeared to show at least four vehicles with crash damage. The crash remains under investigation, but an accident report notes that the cars collided in the HOV lane and left lane of eastbound L-101, just before 64th Street.
Our thoughts are with the injured victims and their families at this time. We hope for their full recovery.
