Serious Injury Traffic Collision
On 07-10-15, at approximately 3:57 PM, officers from the Chula Vista Police Department responded to a report of a roll over traffic collision on East H Street, just west of the intersection with Paseo Ranchero in Chula Vista.
When officers arrived on scene, it was discovered the incident involved two vehicles. The driver of a Volkswagen Jetta traveling eastbound lost control and spun out crossing the concrete center median. The Jetta struck a Chrysler PT Cruiser traveling westbound causing the Jetta to flip over and land on the north curb line of East H St. Witnesses reported the Jetta might have been racing another driver. The driver of the Jetta was pinned inside the vehicle.
Chula Vista Fire responded to the scene and had to forcibly remove the driver of the Jetta from the vehicle. The pinned driver was transported by ambulance to UCSD Medical Center to be treated for serious injuries. The Chula Vista Police Traffic Bureau was called to the scene to investigate the collision.
The cause of the collision has not been determined. Alcohol did not appear to be a factor in the collision. The Chula Vista Police Traffic Bureau is currently investigating.
