A man was in critical condition with unknown injuries after crashing into a cement wall and then a pickup truck in a wreck in which police said speed might have been a factor, authorities said Saturday.
Pomona Police Department Traffic Services Bureau officers were called at about 6:48 p.m. Friday to Fairplex Drive and Paseo La Paz.
They learned the driver of a sedan was driving northbound on Fairplex, approaching Paseo La Paz, when he lost control — colliding with a cement wall, and then into the passenger side of a pick-up, police said.
Paramedics from the Los Angeles County Fire Department arrived and took the driver, who police said is approximately 40 years old, to a nearby hospital.
It was not immediately known if alcohol or drugs were a factor.
The department’s Major Accident Investigation Team was investigating. Anyone with information regarding the accident was asked to call the Pomona Police Department’s Traffic Services Bureau at 909-802-7741 or 909-620-2048.
