A human trafficking suspect’s vehicle overturned on the 105 Freeway in South Los Angeles Thursday, triggering an LAPD closure of every eastbound lane near the 110 Freeway connector. The crash turned a police pursuit into a major freeway interruption along one of the region’s busiest corridors. Details remained limited in the first reports.
Overturned Vehicle Blocks Eastbound 105
According to CBS Los Angeles, the vehicle overturned just past the 110 Freeway connector, near train tracks located in the middle of the freeway. Officers closed all eastbound lanes while responding to the crash and pursuit.
Drivers dealing with the closure can check Caltrans QuickMap, which provides live roadway information including lane closures, full closures and California Highway Patrol incident reports. The agency says its incident layer is updated frequently, though conditions can change quickly around an active crash scene.
The initial account did not identify the suspect by name, say whether anyone was injured or provide an estimated time for the eastbound lanes to reopen. CBS Los Angeles also did not report additional details about the suspected human-trafficking case or what led officers to begin the pursuit.
