A truck driver was hospitalized, and two others sustained mild injuries after a multi-vehicle crash spilled 70,000 pounds of juice on Highway 99 in Fresno early Friday morning, June 20, 2025.
According to the California Highway Patrol, the crash occurred shortly after 2:45 a.m. on northbound Highway 99 near Herndon Avenue. Authorities said the driver of a semi-truck lost control and struck an embankment, causing the truck to overturn and block the two right lanes.
The semi-truck driver sustained an arm injury and was transported to the hospital. A second semi-truck driver attempting to avoid the overturned vehicle was rear-ended by a Ford F-250. Both of those drivers suffered mild injuries but did not require hospitalization.
The crash initially blocked all lanes of northbound Highway 99. As of the latest update, one lane has reopened, with full reopening expected within approximately three hours.
The incident remains under investigation by the CHP.
Don’t Know What To Do After An Accident?
Your safety and rights depend on what you do next after an accident. Remember the following steps if you find yourself in one:
- Check yourself for any injuries.
- Stay on the scene, call 9-1-1, and wait for emergency responders.
- Move your vehicle to the road shoulder if safe; turn on hazard lights.
- Fully cooperate with law enforcement and stay until cleared to leave.
- Document the scene and injuries with photos and videos.
- Seek immediate medical attention.
- Contact your insurance company and find a personal injury lawyer for legal advice.
What A Lawyer Can Do For You
Many victims put off calling a lawyer even if they sustain injuries after an accident. However, lawyers can help you in many ways. They can provide you with police reports, CCTV footage, and witness statements to strengthen your case. Your attorney will also negotiate with insurance companies to get you fair compensation. The best part is that they will do all of these things for you at no upfront cost. So if you’re injured in an accident, hire a personal injury attorney to recover medical bills, car repair costs, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
