Three people died and at least one other person was injured after a crash Thursday morning on the Bay Bridge, and another major collision snarled traffic on Interstate 880 in Hayward, according to the California Highway Patrol.
The fatal crash on the Bay Bridge snarled traffic heading out of San Francisco on eastbound I-80.
At about 4:15 a.m., CHP officers learned that a Toyota Tacoma struck a Mini Cooper on the highway's eastbound lanes west of Treasure Island, CHP spokesman Mark Andrews said. All three people inside the Mini Cooper died, according to the CHP.
The driver of the Tacoma suffered major injuries and was taken to a hospital.
Meanwhile, a multi-vehicle crash on southbound I-880 in Hayward clogged commute traffic in the East Bay. It was unclear if there were any injuries in that wreck.
Both crashes prompted Sig-alerts form the CHP.
