Car Collision on Artesia Freeway Claims Life of 62-Year-Old Mary Cuevas

A devastating accident shook the city of Compton earlier this week, leaving a family grieving and a community in mourning. Early Monday morning, a two-vehicle collision claimed the life of 62-year-old Mary Cuevas, as confirmed by the Los Angeles County Office of Medical Examiner.

The incident occurred at approximately 12:08 a.m. on the eastbound lanes of the Artesia (91) Freeway, just near the Alameda Street off-ramp. According to official reports, emergency personnel responded swiftly to the scene to attend to those involved and investigate the circumstances of the crash. Despite their best efforts, Mary Cuevas sadly succumbed to her injuries from the collision.

Details surrounding what led to the crash are still under investigation by authorities. Preliminary information suggests two vehicles were involved, but further statements from officials and potential witnesses are still forthcoming. Traffic in the area was heavily impacted for several hours as investigators worked to process the scene and clear the roadway.

Accidents like this are tragic reminders of how quickly life can change and the importance of remaining vigilant on the road, especially during late-night or early-morning hours when visibility and attentiveness may be compromised.
