FRESNO COUNTY, Calif. (August 28, 2026) — A crash on Highway 180 West in Sanger involving a truck or tractor and a white Ford F150 resulted in major injuries Friday morning near North Oliver Avenue.

The incident occurred on August 28th at approximately 6:46 a.m., prompting emergency responders to arrive swiftly at the scene. The crash reportedly took place in the westbound direction, just west of the junction.

Early reports indicate that the collision involved a large red commercial truck and a white Ford F150, though the exact circumstances leading to the crash remain under investigation.
