Tempe, AZ – Officers Investigating Injury Car Crash on L-101 Price at Broadway Rd
Tempe, AZ (February 3, 2021) – The southbound lanes of Loop 101 have reopened in Tempe after a crash occurred on Wednesday afternoon.
Per reports from the Tempe Police Department, the crash happened around 2:00 p.m. on southbound Loop 101, also known as the Price Freeway, near Broadway Road under Apache. Southbound traffic in the right lanes was restricted while officers with the TPD and officials with the Arizona Department of Public Safety investigated the multi-vehicle crash, but the road has since reopened.
Footage from the Arizona Department of Transportation showed two vehicles that sustained damage at the scene, but details surrounding the cause of the crash are unclear at this time. Local EMTs were also dispatched to the scene and appeared to transport at least one victim to an area medical center. The victims’ current conditions are unknown.
The accident investigation continues.
Our thoughts are with the injured victims and their families at this time. We hope for their full recovery.
Multi-Vehicle Crashes in Arizona
Each day, hundreds of vehicle accidents occur throughout the state. Car accidents are an unfortunate but common reality of life, especially those involving injuries and more than one vehicle. Despite their frequent occurrence, these car crash victims still suffer physical and emotional trauma, particularly if an accident occurred through no fault of their own.
Furthermore, grieving families may be left to pick up the pieces if they lose their loved ones in fatal car wrecks.
According to the Arizona Department of Transportation, nearly 50,000 injuries occurred as a result of crashes statewide in 2018.
