6 People Hurt in 5-Vehicle Crash on Bowman Road [Cottonwood, CA]

2 People Hospitalized After Crash on Bowman Road in Cottonwood

Cottonwood, CA (November 6, 2024) – On Wednesday, six people sustained injuries in a five-vehicle crash on Bowman Road.

The Red Bluff Office of the California Highway Patrol (CHP) reported that officers arrived at Bowman Road and Adams Road around 2:38 p.m. after receiving crash reports. 

Upon reaching the scene, they discovered a collision involving five vehicles that had completely obstructed Bowman Road east of Adams Road.

The vehicles involved in the crash included a Dodge Ram 3500, a Ford Escape, a Kia Soul, a Lincoln MKZ, and a Chevrolet Impala. 

According to CHP, the crash began when the driver of the Dodge Ram 3500, traveling eastbound on Bowman Road, approached a traffic stoppage caused by Pacific Gas & Electric work. 

The eastbound lane was closed, and vehicles had stopped ahead of the closure.

Authorities stated that the Ram’s driver became distracted, looked back at the road, and was unable to stop in time. 

Traveling at approximately 40 miles per hour, the Ram collided with the line of stationary vehicles, causing a chain reaction that damaged the Ford Escape, Kia Soul, Lincoln MKZ, and Chevrolet Impala.

The crash resulted in minor injuries for six individuals. Two of the injured, both occupants of the Lincoln MKZ, were transported to a local hospital for treatment.

Bowman Road remained blocked for over an hour as emergency crews managed the scene, finally reopening to traffic around 3:42 p.m.

At this time, no arrests have been made, and the crash remains under investigation by CHP.
