Officer, Man Killed In Crash On 60 Freeway

HACIENDA HEIGHTS (AP) ― Lanes have reopened on the 60 Freeway in Hacienda Heights four hours after two people, including off-duty Los Angeles County Police Lt. Gilbert Valderrama, 55, were killed in a crash involving two vehicles. 

California Highway Patrol Officer David Porter says Valderrama's SUV slammed into a disabled minivan approximately 12:40 a.m. Wednesday, ejecting him out of the car and killing an 18-year-old who had gotten out of the stalled van. Porter says Valderrama and the teen were pronounced dead at the scene.

Three out of four westbound lanes and two out of four eastbound lanes were closed because of the crash. Porter says they reopened at 4:40 a.m.

The accident was under investigation.
