Azusa Big‑Rig Crash Spills Thousands of Cans

Early Tuesday morning a multivehicle crash on westbound I-210 near Vernon Avenue in Azusa involving several big rigs split a tractor‑trailer and sent thousands of beer cans and multiple kegs into traffic, triggering SigAlerts, closing lanes for hours and snarling the morning commute. Authorities and crews worked for several hours to clear the debris; local estimates put the spill at as many as 5,000 cans, and at least one driver was taken to hospital after complaining of pain while others reported injuries. Multiple outlets captured video of the wreck and cleanup, which included long closures of right lanes and extended detours. Separately, a Mendocino CHP dispatch reported a vehicle struck rocks on Highway 162 E at 19:57 with no injuries and no traffic blockage. PennDOT will close the Route 30 West off‑ramp to Route 462/Hallam from Oct. 5–12 for reconstruction as part of a $15 million Route 30 resurfacing project that continues through 2027.
