The incident was reported at approximately 8:30 a.m. at mile post 20 on northbound I-215 West, near the California Avenue exit. Crews could be seen on the department's traffic cameras working along the bridge's right side, and multiple vehicles were parked along the bridge's shoulder, including what appeared to be UHP vehicles.
