Dozens injured in California freeway pileup

LONG BEACH, Calif. -- Nearly 200 cars and big-rig trucks collided on the fogbound Long Beach Freeway early Sunday, injuring dozens of people, nine critically, and closing the highway for hours.

"The fog was thick and all you saw on the horizon was the cars piled up in both directions," driver Rob Zeigler told KABC-TV. "... You could feel your car moving, knowing that other cars are still hitting you."

CHP Officer Joseph Pace said 194 vehicles, including seven or eight tractor-trailers, were involved in two separate pileups.
