One driver was arrested early Monday morning on suspicion of driving under the influence following a four-car collision, where one vehicle was in flames.
Citrus Heights Police officers responded to reports of a collision on San Juan Avenue Monday morning involving four vehicles. Upon arrival, officers found one vehicle on fire, but no one was inside. Emergency personnel were able to extinguish the flames.
No one was injured, and all occupants were able to exit the vehicles involved in the collision, authorities said. Two vehicles, including the one that was on fire, had to be towed from the scene. Citrus Heights Police Sgt. Ryan Smith said one driver was found to be under the influence of drugs or alcohol and was arrested at the scene.
Partial road closures were in effect for over an hour as vehicles were removed from the scene, including northbound San Juan Avenue from Sperry Lane to Greenback Lane. The roadway was reopened shortly after 8 a.m.
Details of what led to the collision were not immediately available.
