Fresno, CA (January 31, 2022) – A four-vehicle crash in Fresno County on Friday injured three people.

The accident occurred around 6:20 p.m. by the intersection of Jensen and DeWolf avenues. Police say a gray sedan going southbound on DeWolf attempted to turn onto Jensen when it was struck by a white sedan already on Jensen. Later, a third vehicle struck the other two – and a few minutes later, a fourth struck them as well.

Two occupants of the white vehicle and a passenger in the gray sedan were injured in the crash. The identities of those involved have not been released.

The crash is being investigated. It is not known if drugs or alcohol were involved.

Car Accidents in California

A serious car accident is one of the most devastating things a person can go through. They are often left with painful injuries that demand extensive medical treatment. In the state of California, more than 150,000 people are hospitalized yearly as a result of injuries sustained in car accidents.

Often, victims are rushed from the accident scene and admitted into hospitals for treatment. Having to go through emergency surgery and spent days or even weeks in hospitals can be overwhelming. Most victims feel scared, confused, and uncertain about how to move forward after being involved in an accident.

When victims are hurt in accidents as a result of someone else’s negligence, it is important that they reach out to a car accident attorney in Running Springs as soon as possible. 

Victims could be entitled to damages to help ease the financial burdens they face moving forward. In many cases, accident victims are able to recover compensation to cover both economic and non-economic damages, including:

  • Medical bills 
  • Long-term care expenses
  • Lost wages/lost earnings
  • Vehicle repair or replacements
  • Pain and suffering

In accidents where victims lose their lives, surviving family members may be entitled to compensation for funeral costs, burial fees, loss of consortium, and various other damages.
