Two vehicles collided on Pacific Coast Highway in Santa Monica on Saturday, killing one person and injuring nine.
The crash happened at 3:10 p.m. in the 1000 block of PCH, near the California Incline, Santa Monica Police Lt. Erika Aklufi told City News Service.
A Kia with six adults and two young children was heading north on PCH and trying to turn left on Beach Lot Four North when it was struck by a southbound Toyota Camry with two adults, Aklufi said. The impact was in the rear passenger side door of the Kia.
The 10 occupants of both vehicles were taken by paramedics to Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center in Westwood, he said. A passenger in the back of the Kia suffered a serious leg injury and died at the hospital, she said. The rest of the injuries were “mostly minor.”
There was no description of the victim who died.
Santa Monica police closed the northbound lanes of PCH between the 900 and 1000 blocks and the California Highway Patrol issued a SigAlert at 4:50 p.m., closing the westbound 10 Freeway at Fourth Street.
