The collision occurred at about 2:20 p.m., Newport Beach Police Sgt. Steve Oberon said. Preliminary investigation suggests one of the involved ran a stoplight near the Newport Beach Boulevard ramp.
Photos from the scene of the crash showed numerous motorists held up behind a fire engine, police SUVs and an ambulance. However, no injuries or arrests were reported.
