I-5 North Ramp in Cardiff Reopens After Crash

A rear-end collision caused a Toyota Prius to veer off Interstate-5 at about 7:12 Wednesday. Authorities temporarily closed the north bound on-ramp at Birmingham Drive while they worked the scene. 

The car went down an embankment, hit a fence and stopped before reaching Villa Cardiff Drive. 

The Prius' rear end was badly damaged as was the front end of a car that remained on the shoulder before being towed. 

Radio chatter indicated that paramedics were requested. Additional details were not immediately available.
