San Diego, CA (December 22, 2025) – Emergency dispatch reports indicate two men were injured in a rear-end collision on a San Diego freeway near Fifth Avenue early Saturday morning. The crash happened around 5:05 a.m. Op 20 december. A small SUV driven by a 42-year-old man was rear-ended at highway speeds by a sedan. The collision resulted in moderate rear-end damage to the SUV, pushing it into a third vehicle in front. The SUV’s driver, wearing a seatbelt, experienced lower back pain and was transported wearing a cervical collar. The seatback in his vehicle reportedly collapsed from the impact’s force, adding to his injury. The second person, a 23-year-old man who was driving the sedan that caused the crash, suffered minor cuts to his right wrist—probably from broken glass—and felt chest pain due to the airbag deploying. He was also transported for evaluation but needed no immediate treatment beyond monitoring. Both men were taken to Scripps Mercy Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. No other individuals were reported hurt, and officials have yet to disclose information on any citations or factors involved. We wish both drivers a safe and smooth recovery after this early-morning freeway crash.
