Home snarls traffic on Southern California freeway after falling off semi

A prefabricated home that toppled onto the 210 Freeway when the semi-truck pulling it overturned in Pasadena Monday night blocked most of the westbound lanes for more than 13 hours, affecting the Tuesday morning commute.

The crash involving the semi-truck and another vehicle was reported shortly before 7 p.m. on the westbound side of the freeway near North Lake Avenue.

The semi was transporting a prefabricated home, which fell into lanes and damaged the second vehicle, the California Highway Patrol stated.

The SigAlert was finally lifted around 8:30 a.m.

No information regarding any injuries or the cause of the crash was released.
