110 Freeway in South Pasadena cleared after rollover accident

The southbound lanes of the 110 Freeway in South Pasadena have been cleared of a single-vehicle rollover accident that blocked traffic Thursday morning, the California Highway Patrol said.

All lanes were opened as of 8:44 a.m. but traffic remained backed up after firefighters extricated a driver from a car that rolled over south of Orange Grove Avenue.

The driver, who was not identified, was in critical condition at a hospital, authorities said.

The segment of the 110 through South Pasadena and Highland Park is considered especially dangerous.
