As many as 7 people are hurt in Los Angeles-area Crash

A violent crash in Los Angeles’ Beverly Grove neighborhood left four people injured, including three who were hospitalized, after their car slammed into a tree and caught fire Friday morning.

The incident occurred shortly before 2:30 a.m. on Crescent Heights Boulevard near Beverly Boulevard.

Video taken shortly before emergency crews arrived at the scene showed the white BMW on fire as bystanders attempted to help the people inside.

A man with a fire extinguisher eventually came running out to douse the flames. One person remained trapped as police arrived at the scene.

Three of the vehicle’s occupants were later taken to a local hospital in stable condition. A fourth was treated at the scene, a Los Angeles Police Department spokesperson confirmed to KTLA.
