A tanker truck overturned following a collision in Agua Dulce, Los Angeles County, on Sunday evening, July 28, 2025.
According to the California Highway Patrol, the incident occurred around 4:57 p.m. on the northbound Antelope Valley (14) Freeway, just north of the Agua Dulce Canyon Road off-ramp.
A witness reported that two vehicles involved in the crash with the tanker truck appeared to be engaged in a speed contest prior to the collision. CHP Officer Sergio Garcia stated that no arrests were made, and it was not immediately known if any injuries occurred.
CHP issued a SigAlert at approximately 6:00 p.m., closing the northbound lanes of the 14 Freeway and the Agua Dulce Canyon Road on-ramp due to a fuel leak from the overturned tanker. Officer Garcia later confirmed that two lanes reopened by 4:30 a.m. Monday.
Authorities continue to investigate the crash.

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.
