Norwalk:

A traffic nightmare is playing out over here in Norwalk this morning on the Santa Ana (5) Freeway.

A motorcycle rider died in a crash on the southbound 5 Freeway over at Pioneer Boulevard and the freeway is closed down in that direction.


The motorcycle crash just north of Pioneer Boulevard was reported at 4:25 a.m., and all southbound lanes were closed to accommodate the investigation, according to the California Highway Patrol.

A second crash occurred just before 5:20 a.m. in backed-up traffic when a big rig rear-ended a stopped vehicle on the southbound 5, according to the CHP.

Paramedics declared the victim dead at the scene. As soon as his name is released, and his city of residence, I will be posting it here.   In the meantime, Starbucks is doing HUGE business this morning over at the 5 and Shoemaker in Norwalk.

Keep you posted.
