Car wedged between sheriff cruisers after crash in Orange County

Shortly after 2:00 AM on Monday at the intersection of Beach Boulevard and Orangewood Avenue in Stanton, Engine 46 responded to a vehicle fire at a Shell gas station, according to the OCFA.
Sheriff's deputies were at the scene to assist firefighters and set up a police barricade for street closures due to the car fire.
A second vehicle, a Nissan Altima sedan, traveling at a high rate of speed, crashed into the Sheriff's Department vehicles blocking the fire scene, becoming wedged between two of them after apparently jumping a curb and hitting a pole, also damaging a water pipe.
Four Sheriff vehicles were damaged and an adult male driver was trapped in the second vehicle, requiring extrication, while an onsite witness told KTLA the Nissan sedan slammed into the Sheriff vehicles parked just outside of the gas station.
Both drivers were transported to the hospital with unknown conditions, while no OCFA or Sheriff's Department personnel were injured, and the California Highway Patrol and OCFA fire investigators are investigating both the traffic collision and vehicle fire.
