Victim dies in hospital after collision with big rig truck
According to a recent report, a woman was killed on Friday afternoon after she was involved in a fatal accident with a big rig truck on Carmenita Road and Imperial Highway.
As mentioned in the report, the accident occurred at about 3:00 p.m. when the collision occurred just south of Imperial Highway.
