Eight Car Accident in Anaheim Leaves One Dead

A serious car accident involving eight cars occurred this weekend in Anaheim that has tragically left one person dead. According to authorities, a 25 year old man was driving east on Ball Road in the early morning when he ran a red light at Anaheim Boulevard. After running through the red light he collided with other cars, eventually resulting in eight other vehicles involved. The male driver sustained serious injuries as a result of his injuries, and rescue crews had to use the Jaws of Life to extricate him from the car. Tragically, he died at the hospital due to the severity of his injuries. Two other people that were injured as a result of this major accident had to be transported to local area hospitals as well. Their current conditions are unknown.

Serious multi-party car accidents such as this can cause serious bodily injury to the victims involved. High impact car accidents can have very damaging effects to the human body including: back and neck sprain/strain, major contusions, head injuries such as concussions, and broken bones and fractures. Other common injuries can include displacements of the spinal discs in the neck and back. Many times, internal injuries that affect the neck and spine do not manifest themselves for weeks or possibly even months after the accident. As a result, it is important to seek immediate medical attention for any injuries sustained in an accident, and to follow up with frequent medical check-ups and visits to ensure proper healing.
