At least 30 people were injured after a car plowed through a crowd early Saturday in East Hollywood, Los Angeles, authorities said.

The incident took place outside the music venue The Vermont, near the intersection of Santa Monica Boulevard and Vermont Avenue in east Los Angeles, at around 2:00 a.m. local time.

At least seven people are now in critical condition, six are in serious condition and more than a dozen were treated on site, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department. In total 23 patients were transported.

Police said the driver was shot by a male after the crash. The driver's condition is unknown and the shooter is at large.

The motive for the crash is still under investigation, the LAPD said.

The suspect who shot the driver fled the scene on foot and was last seen heading westbound from Vermont Avenue. The suspect is described as a Hispanic male, approximately 5 feet 9 inches tall, 180 pounds, bald, wearing a blue jersey, and possibly armed with a silver revolver, according to the LAPD.

Authorities said 124 fire personnel were assisting at the scene.

Personally, I don't know if the driver had altercation with someone there earlier or just random nutjob.

Did the hispanic male shot the guy because he was plowing people or was the guy plowing people because he was trying to get away from the shooter?

crazy shit

​

• The driver is hospitalized and undergoing surgery; his current condition is unknown
• Investigators are examining whether the action was intentional—some say he was involved in a fight inside the venue and exited to plow into the crowd
• Conflicting early statements suggested possible loss of consciousness, but those claims are still under investigation
• It's unknown whether the driver was shot before or after running into the crowd.

Did they just assume the shooter's gender?

Unless the driver was an Asian or highly intoxicated, I am going to assume this was on purpose.

What the hell is a group of 30 people doing congregating in one area at 2:00 AM.?

Lol one of the victims was shot? Hopefully after because that's a new level of ghetto to get shot and still decide to wait in line to get into a club

Sounds like a drunk driver who ended up in the world of hurt he created.

The videos are brutal. A lot of people were seriously hurt and the driver got absolutely shitstomped.

I live pretty close to there. My assumption is the guy was fucked up. LAPD doesn’t do shit anymore, there’s drunk drivers all over the place these days.
