LOS ANGELES \u2014 Three people were killed and others were injured when a vehicle crashed into pedestrians near a public transportation stop in Los Angeles on Tuesday evening, officials said.
Los Angeles police said a white SUV struck at least five pedestrians at Lankershim and Chandler boulevards in the North Hollywood section of the city, where a Los Angeles Metro station is located, at around 5:55 p.m.
Three were dead at the scene and three others were taken to the hospital in critical condition, the Los Angeles Fire Department said.
The SUV\u2019s driver, a man in his mid-60s, was among the injured, Police Capt. Warner Castillo said. The department\u2019s drug-recognition experts were at the hospital to determine whether the driver was impaired, he said.
Police did not believe that any other vehicle was involved, Castillo said.
Assistant Fire Chief Joe Everett told reporters that an agency battalion chief came across the crash at around 6 p.m., \u201cand what he found was a car that had careened into a number of people on the sidewalk.\u201d
Everyone who was struck was on the sidewalk, Police Chief Jim McDonnell said. He said the investigation was still in its early stages.
Mayor Karen Bass said the people who were struck were pedestrians and vendors. She said her office is coordinating with city departments and authorities to determine the cause of the crash.
\u201cI\u2019m heartbroken for the families of everyone impacted. We will continue to provide updates as more information becomes available,\u201d Bass said.
Aerial video from NBC Los Angeles showed what appeared to be a white vehicle crashed into the side of the Metro station, which houses escalators and stairs that go down to the subway, and debris scattered over the area.
\u201cIt was a huge boom,\u201d Lincoln Brown, who was walking away from the station at the time, told NBC Los Angeles.
\u201cI was walking the opposite direction, but I heard a loud crash behind me,\u201d he said. \u201cI turn around, and I see a car that\u2019s smashed up against the Metro over there.\u201d
A witness said two women selling hot dogs were thrown in the air from the impact, the station reported<\/a>.
Luis Luna-Guzman was working at a burger stand nearby when he heard a loud boom and saw people on the ground along with food and cups. As he moved closer, he found an injured woman lying near the bike racks, her face, arms and legs bloody, he told the Associated Press.
\u201cI told her, \u2018Don\u2019t move, help is coming,\u2019\u201d Luna-Guzman said, adding that he saw a woman\u2019s body nearby, while another woman was lying unmoving on the stairs leading to the station.
It was not clear how fast the white vehicle was traveling, and investigators will be looking at video and interviewing witnesses, McDonnell said.
\u201cIt\u2019ll be probably a prolonged but very deliberate investigation to determine what happened here, and our hearts go out to the families of the victims that were struck here tonight,\u201d he said.
Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors member Kathryn Barger expressed her condolences and wishes for the recovery of those injured.
\u201cI am stunned by the tragic loss of life in North Hollywood and my thoughts are with the victims, their loved ones, and everyone affected by this devastating incident,\u201d she said in a statement.
