2 People Hospitalized after Crash on Interstate 15 in Cajon Pass

Cajon Pass, CA (October 22, 2023) – Early Sunday morning, two people sustained severe injuries in a crash on Interstate 15.

The single-vehicle accident happened on southbound Interstate 15 between Oak Hills Road and Highway 138 exits at around 12:54 a.m. on October 22.

Police said the vehicle involved was a gray Nissan sedan, an unknown model.

The driver skidded and lost control, whereupon the vehicle struck the center divider and skidded down an embankment, according to a witness in the California Highway Patrol traffic log.

When firefighters arrived on the scene, they found the vehicle about 100 feet below the freeway in the median in a ravine with two victims inside.

Responders used rescue equipment commonly referred to as “Jaws of Life” to gain access and extricate the victims. Simultaneously, rescue personnel completed a rope rescue system to bring both victims back to the roadway safely.

EMS transported the two patients to Arrowhead Regional Medical Center with major injuries.

Further investigation to determine the circumstances of the crash is ongoing.
