The California Highway Patrol is investigating a fatal multi-vehicle crash that blocked southbound Interstate 880 at the Mission Boulevard (state Route 262) interchange early Sunday morning. According to the CHP incident log, the initial collision was reported at approximately 3:57 a.m., involvin g a disabled vehicle on the right shoulder and on-ramp area. By 4:32 a.m., authorities received reports of multiple vehicles continuing to crash as the incident expanded to involve an estimated seven to eight vehicles, including a white Ford Transit van. One caller reported that a vehicle struck the disabled vehicle, spun into the I-880 mainline, and was struck again. Another involved vehicle came to rest in the embankment just south of SR-262. The crash resulted in people reportedly trapped in the wreckage, prompting the CHP to request three tow trucks. The Alameda County Coroner was notified at approximately 5:37 a.m. At 5:58 a.m., the CHP issued a SigAlert, reporting that southbound lanes 2, 3 and 4 were blocked. While the number one lane was opened temporarily, the Mission Boulevard/SR-262 flyover remained closed. Authorities subsequently requested a hard closure of southbound I-880 at Mission Boulevard, directing that all vehicles on the Mission off-ramp be held. ...read more read less
