Apparent Road Rage Crash In Hermosa Beach Temporarily Stalls Traffic

HERMOSA BEACH (CBSLA) -- An apparent road rage crash in Hermosa Beach on Saturday evening, involving three vehicles, led to a temporary road closure.

The incident happened at Seventh Street and Hermosa Avenue around 5 p.m., stopping all southbound traffic through that intersection for some time.

Video from TMZ showed several vehicles driving with waving American flags, and at least one had pro-President Donald Trump decorations on it.

Witnesses told CBS2/KCAL9 that some people in one of the vehicles had a confrontation with people riding in a vehicle that displayed a Make America Great Again flag.

Moments later, a Mustang was seen losing control, clipping a row of parked vehicles before rolling over.

"There are not many street lights, so a lot of people speed," one witness said about Hermosa Avenue.

CBS2/KCAL9 was told that a young child was in one of the vehicles involved in the incident, but no one was seriously hurt.

Traffic was moving again around 6:30 p.m., Hermosa Beach police said.

At last check, police had not made any arrests.
