At least one person died in a multiple-vehicle collision on southbound Interstate 680 in Fremont on Thursday morning, according to the California Highway Patrol.

The CHP said that around 7:05 a.m., its officers learned about a crash involving six vehicles, including a jackknifed big-rig, along the highway's southbound lanes just north of the Mission Boulevard South off-ramp.

Due to the collision, three southbound I-680 lanes between Auto Mall Parkway and the Mission Boulevard off-ramp were blocked, according to CHP.

All lanes reopened just after 1 p.m., the CHP said.
