Vehicle/motorcycle injury accident snarls Pacific Coast Highway

A collision between a motorcycle and a car backed up traffic on Pacific Coast Highway for blocks this morning. The incident occurred around 9:20 a.m. near the intersection of Herondo Street and Pacific Coast Highway.

According to Redondo Beach Police Department Lt. Joe Hoffman, at least one person, a passenger on the motorcycle was hurt in the collision. An injured person appeared to be loaded up by ambulance personnel to be taken to a nearby medical facility.

Traffic was snarled in all directions at the intersection as a Redondo Beach Fire Department ladder truck blocked traffic to protect medical crews and the drivers of the vehicles.
