According to a recent article, there was a fatal accident that occurred on the Pomona (60) Freeway near North Diamond Bar Boulevard on Saturday in which Bloomington resident Timothy Rios was killed.
Per the article, the 23-year-old man was involved in the deadly collision at approximately 2:38 a.m when CHP responded to the incident.
