A 10-year-old Anaheim boy has been killed and nine people were injured in two separate accidents on Highway 91 in Anaheim, according to a news report.
The California Highway Patrol said that four vehicles were involved in the two accidents that occurred on eastbound Highway 91 at East Street, closing all lanes of traffic for several hours. A total of 10 people were taken to area hospitals with injuries; the 10-year-old boy died at UC Irvine Medical Center and has been identified as Salvador Carreno Damaso of Anaheim.
CHP investigators were trying to determine if the two crashes were related. The first crash occurred in the carpool and one other lane and the second collision involving two cars happened in two other lanes of the eastbound 91.
