A traffic collision was reported on eastbound State Route 84 at the northbound Interstate 880 connector, according to California Highway Patrol dispatch records.

The crash occurred amid extreme afternoon heat near 101 degrees, per weather data for the time and area.

Dispatch records did not specify how many vehicles were involved, what led to the crash, or how many people may have needed medical attention.
