Harrowing video captured a tractor-trailer driven by an illegal immigrant plowing into at least eight vehicles on a California freeway, killing three people.

Dashcam footage allegedly showed Jashanpreet Singh, 21, slamming into several cars while behind the wheel of the red big-rig on the westbound 10 Freeway shortly after 1 p.m. Wednesday, according to the clip first obtained by ABC7.

The red truck sped into several cars in a lane, smashing them to pieces, before slamming into the back of a white truck, the clip showed.

Singh’s vehicle, which appeared to erupt into flames, veered to the right and came to a halt after hitting another semi on the side of the road.

Three people were killed in the crash, and four others were injured and hospitalized with both minor and severe injuries, authorities said.

Singh is an illegal immigrant from India who entered the US in 2022 through the southern border and was “released” under President Joe Biden’s administration, according to the Department of Homeland Security.

He was arrested by local authorities in San Bernardino County on vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated and driving under the influence charges before ICE issued an arrest detainer.

“It is a terrible tragedy three innocent people lost their lives due to the reckless open border policies that allowed an illegal alien to be released into the U.S. and drive an 18-wheeler on America’s highways,” Assistant DHS Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement to The Post.

“This accident follows a disturbing trend of illegal aliens driving 18-wheelers and semi-trucks on America’s roads.”

Two of the victims of the crash have been identified as Clarence Nelson and his wife, Lisa. Clarence was a former assistant basketball coach at Pomona High, KTLA reported.

Singh is currently being held in jail without bail.
