Authorities say a tanker hauling thousands of gallons of fuel has overturned and is burning on a Southern California freeway. All lanes of Highway 91 are closed near Corona.

The California Highway Patrol says the tanker crashed around 10:30 a.m. Friday on the freeway's eastbound lanes, about 50 miles east of Los Angeles. There's no immediate word on whether anyone was hurt, but the tanker continues to burn and traffic has backed up for miles.
