TRAGIC

At Least 30 Injured After Vehicle Plows Into Crowd Outside L.A. Nightclub

Authorities say the driver has been admitted to hospital after being shot following the crash.

A night out on the town descended into an evening of horror for partygoers at a Los Angeles club after a car plowed into the crowds outside early Saturday morning. At least 30 people sustained injuries as a result of the incident, including seven who are now in critical condition. The Los Angeles Police Department has yet to determine whether the driver was under the influence or if the crash was intentional. The suspect was shot after the collision took place and was subsequently transported to the hospital, where they are currently undergoing surgery. A man who was inside the venue claims to have heard a “loud bang,” with many people ducking in the belief they had heard gunshots. “This is a heartbreaking tragedy,” Mayor Karen Bass said. “The hearts of Angelenos are with all of the victims impacted this morning. A full investigation into what happened is underway.”
