TULARE COUNTY, Calif. (March 12, 2024) — Two people were injured in a fiery crash Tuesday on Highway 43, just south of Avenue 112 in Angiola, an unincorporated community in Tulare County.
The collision occurred on the east side of SR-43 at around 6:43 a.m. on March 12th, according to the California Highway Patrol dispatch.
The drivers of a car and a pickup truck were involved in the collision.
A Toyota caught on fire and its driver was trapped inside with a broken hip and a large laceration on their head. A bystander broke out the window and was trying to get the person out of the burning vehicle, police said.
