Summary
Shortly before 7:30 a.m., two overturned cars near Santa Monica Boulevard shut multiple northbound I-405 lanes during the Los Angeles rush hour, snarling traffic until crews cleared the wreckage and reopened the roadway.
CHP issued a SigAlert just after 8 a.m. for lanes 4, 5 and 6, then extended it by another 30 minutes at about 8:30 a.m. as emergency responders worked at the scene.
At least one person declined hospital transport, while authorities said it was not immediately clear whether anyone suffered serious injuries.
Video showed traffic stacking up behind the crash, with some motorists trying to exit the freeway; the cause remained under investigation and no citations or arrests were announced.
