Man is killed and woman and four children injured in crash on 10 Freeway
One man was killed and a woman and four children injured Sunday afternoon in a rollover crash on the 10 Freeway, fire officials said.
Authorities said the two-car crash occurred near the Hoover Street ramp on the westbound 10 in the University Park area.
One man was found dead at the scene, and a 29-year-old woman and four boys were taken to a trauma center for treatment, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department.
Construction delays led to heavy congestion at Los Angeles International Airport on Sunday.
One boy is 3 months old; the others are 6, 7 and 10 years. Officials said they were in serious or critical condition.
The crash, which occurred around 3 p.m., closed all westbound lanes on the 10 for several hours. The California Highway Patrol reopened the freeway around 6:30 p.m.
