Several lanes of the southbound 405 Freeway in Culver City were closed Wednesday morning as firefighters worked to rescue a man trapped in an overturned SUV.
Two other men in the older model Ford Explorer suffered minor to moderate injuries when the car overturned just before 6 a.m., according to the Los Angeles Fire Department.
The vehicle blocked the carpool and number three lanes of the freeway near Jefferson Boulevard, just north of the 90 Freeway interchange, for a little less than an hour.
The extent of the man’s injuries is not immediately clear, and the cause of the crash was not available.
A SIG Alert was lifted by CHP before 7 a.m. and traffic delays were expected.
