Eleven people, including several children, have been injured in a two-car crash on the northbound I-5 in Anaheim, according to a news report.
The California Highway Patrol said that the driver of a red Mini Cooper made an unsafe lane change and struck the side of a GMC Yukon, sending the SUV spinning across all lanes of the northbound I-5 near La Palma Avenue. The SUV hit the center divider and overturned, injuring all 11 people in the vehicle.
All of the SUV passengers were taken to local hospitals for treatment of minor to moderate injuries. According to the CHP, the GMC Yukon had Utah license plates. The female driver of the Mini Cooper and her male passenger were not injured.
