A fatal collision and a large pothole closed freeways and caused motorists major delays near downtown Los Angeles on Sunday, the California Highway Patrol reported. <\/p>\n
Southbound lanes of the Harbor (110) Freeway near Olympic Boulevard were closed for several hours after a four-car crash was reported about 5:45 a.m., according to the CHP. A man was pronounced dead at the scene. There were no reports of other injuries, and investigators have not yet determined the cause of the accident, said CHP Officer Krystal Carter. <\/p>\n
That crash may have triggered a second one, which involved an off-duty sheriff\u2019s deputy, Carter said. The CHP opened the far right lane of the 110 Freeway and the transition road to the Santa Monica (10) Freeway at 7:20 a.m., and all southbound lanes reopened at 8:45 a.m., Carter said. <\/p>\n
On the Santa Ana (101) Freeway, southbound lanes just north of East 1st Street were closed after a pothole was reported at 11:55 p.m. Saturday, according to the CHP. The depression measured 4 feet in diameter and was about 6 inches deep, Carter said. No injuries were reported, but 20 to 25 vehicles were stranded on the right shoulder with flat tires, Carter said. <\/p>\n
Caltrans was working to repair the pothole, but there was no estimate of when the freeway would reopen, Carter said.<\/p>\n
