At least 20 people were injured when a driver plowed into a crowd standing outside an East Hollywood nightclub on Friday night, according to officials.
“There was a vehicle that had somebody lose consciousness inside the vehicle. Drove into a taco cart and ultimately ran into a large number of people who were outside of the club,” Los Angeles Fire Department Capt. Adam VanGerpen said, according to AXN News.
“It is still unconfirmed, but we have reports that there was a gunshot wound in one of the patients. There was a patient inside the vehicle. They were able to extricate that patient. That’s still ongoing with the investigation,” VanGerpen said.
The crash happened around 2 a.m. outside of The Vermont Hollywood club on Santa Monica Boulevard, near the intersection of Vermont Avenue.
Four to five people were in critical condition, 8 to 10 in serious condition and 10 to 15 in fair condition, the LAFD said in a statement.
