Man Seriously Injured in Multi-vehicle Collision on I-605 in Norwalk; Another Victim Dies
NORWALK, CA (July 3, 2019) – Manuel Guerrero was seriously injured early in the morning on Tuesday on I-605 in a multi-vehicle collision that killed another person in Norwalk. The July 2 incident occurred on the freeway’s southbound side, close to the exit for Alondra Boulevard and to the south of it.
The time was roughly 3:00 a.m., the California Highway Patrol said.
According to the California Highway Patrol, traffic had slowed down due to a construction zone, and a Kia Soul, which approached that area in the number 5 lane, crashed into the rear end of another vehicle. The other vehicle, described as a Toyota Camry, then struck a Freightliner semi truck, which was the vehicle ahead of it.
Reports say the person who had been driving the Kia was not using a seatbelt when the incident happened. The person, who was identified as a man 52 years old and a resident of Cerritos, died at the accident site. His name has not been reported.

The person who had been driving the semi—identified as Ki Ho Baek, 57 years old and a resident of La Puente—was reported to be uninjured.
Investigators are examining the details and information to understand why the collision happened. Neither drugs nor alcohol is believed to have played a role. If anyone has information regarding the incident, he or she should contact Officer M. Dulong. The number is 562-868-0503.
