Multi-Vehicle Truck Collision Over Portland Harbor in Oregon

A pre-dawn collision involving a box truck, tractor-trailer, and a passenger car created a dire situation on I-5 over North Portland Harbor. Portland Fire & Rescue swiftly responded, rescuing two trapped individuals, according to available information.

Reported in late August, the crash prompted joint efforts from Portland and Vancouver firefighting teams. The trapped patients were successfully rescued; one walked away with minor injuries, undergoing a precautionary hospital check, while the other sustained moderate injuries, requiring hospitalization, according to available information.

The box truck’s blockade disrupted northbound traffic until cleared. The incident underscores the role of swift emergency response and the importance of road safety.
