The California Highway Patrol reported that the driver of a Honda CR-V SUV fell asleep at the wheel on the eastbound 91, struck a guardrail and flipped the SUV several times, injuring himself and a passenger, according to a news report.
The CHP said that the driver told officers he had fallen asleep before his Honda SUV hit a right shoulder guardrail and flip several times before coming to rest on its roof. The driver and the passenger both sustained injuries and were treated at the scene.
Witnesses told CHP officers that another vehicle was involved, but authorities were unable to locate the second vehicle.
