EL SEGUNDO, CA (April 29, 2022) – A woman was killed in a wrong-way accident on 105 Freeway in El Segundo on Saturday morning, April 23.
 
Police identified the victim as 35-year-old Los Angeles resident Evelyn Linares, according to the coroner’s office.
 
The fatal accident happened around 1:13 a.m. just east of Nash Street. According to the California Highway Patrol, the woman was driving a silver 2005 Toyota Camry eastbound in the westbound lanes of the 105 Freeway. As a result, the Camry crashed head-on with a westbound black 2017 Toyota Prius, driven by a 35-year-old Manhattan Beach man.
 
The driver of the Prius tried to avoid the crash by swerving to the right, but was unsuccessful.
 
Paramedics pronounced Linares dead at the scene. Loved ones set up a GoFundMe for Linares.

A Sigalert was issued at about 1:45 a.m. and was canceled about two hours later. At this time, it is unknown whether alcohol and/or drugs played a role in the crash.
 
Further investigation is underway. Anyone with information is urged to call the CHP’s West LA office at 310-642-3939.
