Officials said in the first crash, a vehicle crashed with a disabled car that was parked on the right shoulder.

A witness told the CHP that a big rig crashed into vehicles and "split one of the vehicles in half." Officials said the first fatality occurred when a passenger was hit by a big rig in the second crash. The second fatality happened when the driver from the first crash got out of her car and was struck and killed on the roadway. All westbound lanes were closed in the area by 12:08 a.m. Monday and reopened before 6 a.m. The names of the crash victims have not been released and the cause of the crashes are under investigation.
