It happened around 3 p.m. at the intersection of Jefferson Boulevard and Harvard Boulevard, a dispatcher with the LAPD’S Operations Center told City News Service.
Two cars, a Dodge Challenger Hellcat and an Infiniti, were street reportedly street racing at the time of the crash, police said. LAPD Detective Ryan Moreno told KTLA both drivers were arrested.
“You have two cars, possibly from two local car clubs that are known for racing, doing the street racing, so we’re still piecing that together, but unfortunately, it’s something you’re seeing a lot more of nowadays,” he said.
