One person lost their life in a nasty, multi-vehicle crash early Saturday morning on the northbound 101 Freeway in Encino, south of White Oak. Avenue. It went down around 148 AM on April 25th, 2026, with four cars tangled up. One driver pinned right under the wreckage. The firefighters from the Los Angeles Fire Department jacked up the mangled vehicle to check for signs of life, but it was too late in the county. Medical examiner had to step in. A singular hit at 2.38 AM, closing all northbound lanes and forcing traffic off at White Oak, which back things up big time for. Morning commuters. They've since reopened two lanes while investigators from the California Highway Patrol keep three shut down, still piecing together what sparked this.
