SAN DIEGO COUNTY, CA — At least one person was killed Tuesday evening in a single-vehicle accident on Interstate 805 near Chula Vista’s Terra Nova area, according to San Diego Union-Tribune.

The fatal crash happened on the near the I-805 northbound offramp to Telegraph Canyon Road shortly after 7:00 p.m.

An early investigation indicates a black sedan was driving erratically before it overturned and rolled off the roadway and landed on the exit ramp. The car came to rest on its roof, trapping one person inside.

A passerby stopped to help the victim before emergency crews arrived.

The event left the ramp shut down for nearly 90 minutes but later reopened at about 8:45 p.m.

No further information has been disclosed on the parties involved.
