3 Officers, 1 Motorist Injured In Traffic Crash

BREA Three LAPD officers and one motorist were injured Thursday in a two-car crash in Brea, according to authorities.

The three officers were reportedly traveling west on Imperial Highway when a 2005 Nissan Frontier traveling east, driven by a 36-year-old motorist, crossed the center divider near the Orange (57) Freeway and hit the marked patrol car, according to a Brea Police Department news release.

The officers were taken to an area hospital for treatment of minor to moderate injuries, police said.

The driver of the Nissan was taken to a hospital for treatment of back pain.

Imperial Highway was closed in both direction between Associated Road
and State College Boulevard until around 4 p.m., police said.
