Truck Accident Lawyers: Startling Rear-End Crash on Interstate 15 Near Glen Helen Parkway Injures One in Devore
A rear-end crash on Interstate 15 near the Glen Helen Parkway exit in Devore left one person injured and prompted an active California Highway Patrol investigation — a detail that may draw attention from truck accident lawyers and other personal injury practitioners as the initial facts are sorted. The crash occurred Friday night in the southbound lanes about a mile before the Glen Helen Parkway exit and involved a patrol vehicle and a white Lexus RS series SUV.
Where and when the collision happened on southbound I-15
The incident took place on southbound Interstate 15 about a mile before the Glen Helen Parkway exit in Devore. One account timestamps the event at around 6: 00 p. m., while a traffic log entry lists the crash as happening just after 6: 00 p. m. on February 20, 2026; another dated reference gives February 22, 2026 for the same Friday-night collision, making the precise calendar date unclear in the provided context. Both accounts place the impact at roughly the same stretch of highway near the Glen Helen Parkway exit.
Vehicles involved and conditions at the scene
A white Lexus RS series SUV rear-ended a patrol car on the southbound side of I-15. The traffic log notes the officer was inside the patrol vehicle when the driver of the Lexus struck the back of the patrol car. The impact left both vehicles blocking the two left lanes for over an hour while personnel conducted a major investigation.
Injuries, transport and medical status
Emergency responders transported one person by ground ambulance to a local hospital with injuries that are described as unknown in the available information. The nature and severity of the person’s injuries remain unspecified in the material provided.
Investigation steps by the California Highway Patrol, Inland Office
The California Highway Patrol continued investigating the crash. The material notes limited information is available and that events leading to the crash remain unclear in the provided context. The incident will be under investigation by the CHP Inland Office, and updates were expected once a CHP preliminary accident report becomes available.
Legal messaging, a quoted attorney and settlement claims
Alongside the crash details, an attached legal advertisement includes a quoted statement from Steve Baric emphasizing trust and the drive to hold liable parties accountable and secure compensation for clients. The advertisement asserts the firm has handled personal injury and auto-accident matters that have settled more than 600 million dollars in lawsuits and offers 24-hour contact options. Two telephone contact numbers listed in that material are 674-7852 and 674-7854. The presence of that legal messaging is likely to prompt inquiries from truck accident lawyers and other personal-injury attorneys as the CHP investigation proceeds.
What remains unclear and next steps
Key questions remain unresolved: the precise reason the Lexus RS series SUV struck the patrol car is unclear in the provided context, and the exact date ambiguity between February 20, 2026 and February 22, 2026 is unresolved by the available material. Officials awaited the CHP preliminary accident report for more detail, and the public was to be notified when additional information became available.
