SUV pulling camping trailer tips over, blocks lanes

No one injured in accident on 241 toll road.

THE ORANGE COUNTY REGISTER

ANAHEIM HILLS – Two and a half lanes are blocked on the northbound 241 toll road just north of the Windy Ridge Toll Plaza after an SUV towing a camper trailer tipped over on its side, the California Highway Patrol says.

At 12:11 p.m., the CHP received reports that both the SUV and trailer were overturned.

No one was hurt but the Nos. 2 and 3 and part of the No. 1 lanes were all blocked.

The CHP issued a SigAlert at 12:38 p.m.

Lanes are expected to be blocked until 1:38 p.m. so that a heavy-duty tow and flatbed truck can remove the vehicle and trailer from the roadway.
