SAN DIMAS, Calif., Apr. 26 (KNN) — The cab of a semi was completely destroyed in a crash on the 210 Freeway early Friday morning and miraculously, the driver survived.

The California Highway Patrol and Los Angeles County Fire Department received multiple 911 calls around 4:10 a.m. regarding a traffic collision involving a semi on the eastbound 210 Freeway just before the San Dimas Avenue exit in the city of San Dimas.
