A devastating wrong-way crash occurred in the early hours of Easter Sunday, April 20, 2025, on the 10 Freeway near downtown Los Angeles. The incident resulted in one fatality and left three others seriously injured, including a young child.
According to the California Highway Patrol (CHP), a 25-year-old man driving a Kia Stinger was traveling westbound in the eastbound lanes when he collided head-on with a Honda Fit near Santa Fe Avenue. The impact tragically killed the 33-year-old driver of the Honda, a Los Angeles resident, who was pronounced dead at the scene.
The driver of the Kia and his two passengers — a 22-year-old woman and a 5-year-old girl — were hospitalized with injuries. Authorities noted that the child was not secured in a car seat or with a seatbelt, which may have worsened her injuries.
CHP officials believe impairment may have played a role in the crash. The wrong-way driver was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence and murder. The collision resulted in the shutdown of several eastbound lanes of the 10 Freeway for several hours as officials conducted their investigation.
