A driver was hospitalized after a violent and fiery crash into the back of a big rig on the 91 Freeway in the Bellflower area Friday morning.

The crash was reported around 6 a.m. after the big rig apparently stalled in the eastbound lanes just west of the 605 Freeway.

The driver of a black pickup then ran into the semi-truck’s trailer and caught fire.
