Share

The eastbound 91 Freeway in north Long Beach has reopened following a crash involving a truck and multiple other vehicles that caused up to 40 gallons of diesel fuel to spill across three lanes early Monday.

The crash, which was reported near Cherry Avenue about 7:30 a.m., forced authorities to briefly close all eastbound lanes. Authorities reopened two lanes shortly after 8 a.m., according to a California Highway Patrol incident log.

Three lanes were closed until about 10 a.m. as crews cleaned up fuel and other debris from the crash.
