2 People Struck and Injured in I-15 Accident
Sep 11th, 2009 by ANorman
2 people performing trash pick up duties were hurt when a car hit them as they were working along I-15 in City Heights Thursday. One of the victims, a Caltrans employee and one of the probationers she was overseeing were seriously injured and taken to area hospitals. They were struck by a 1992 Infiniti J30 that was traveling northbound when it swerved off to the right hand side of the freeway just south of the I-805 interchange. The car collided with the slow-moving Caltrans van on the shoulder shortly after 10:30 a.m. and bounced off the van before sliding into the man and woman that were working in front of it.
The duo was taken to Scripps Mercy Hospital for treatment of major injuries. The driver of the Infiniti, a 50-year-old woman, was taken to neighboring UCSD Medical Center where she was treated for minor injuries and released that afternoon. She told Authorities that was reaching for coins in her car prior to the collision.
