Caltrans reported just after 10 p.m. that all lanes were blocked due to the traffic collision.
According to CHP, at least four vehicles were involved in a collision after a vehicle reportedly rear-ended another vehicle that was rolling with its hazards on going around 50 mph. The force of the collision sent one of the vehicles into a highway divider wall, causing it to burst into flames.
At least one person was taken to the hospital.
Some lanes of I-15 south began reopening around 11:15 p.m., Caltrans said in an update. All lanes have since reopened to traffic.
