101 South by Gilroy?

Anyone know any details about the 6-8 car accident in Gilroy? About 12pm on 101 South.

Was a flat bed with 3 cars on it, a Civic (EG6) that got rearended by a Chevy Express van (whose drivers area was pretty well wrecked, and about another 4 cars in various degrees of damage on the highway.

I know a Silver 02-03 WRX Wagon had went through the scene heading south as I was passing the scene in the Northbound lane.

true photographer right there. I've had instructors that get "cheap" cameras to leave in their car and then carry their better ones in and out of the house/dwelling

I wish I had that much money
