A 19-year-old Pomona man was killed Saturday morning in an accident involving two big rig trucks on the northbound 15 Freeway in Devore, California.

One truck crashed into another big rig truck that was parked on the side of the road waiting for gas about 9:30 a.m. just south of the Glen Helen Parkway exit.

The semi big rig was stopped on the right shoulder of the freeway waiting for gas when the other truck swerved on to the shoulder to avoid slower traffic.

The swerving truck then crashed into the parked truck, instantly killing passenger Juan Carlos Garcia Bautista, said California Highway Patrol spokeswoman Hope Maxson.

The drivers of both trucks were taken to a nearby hospital to be treated for injuries.

The CHP closed several lanes of the freeway until Saturday afternoon.

The California Highway Patrol is investigating the collision.

It appears on the surface, that the truck that swerved onto the shoulder to avoid traffic is responsible for this accident, and the driver thereof would be solely responsible for the wrongful death of passenger Carlos Garcia Bautista.
