More than two dozen people were injured when a vehicle crashed into a Los Angeles crowd in the early morning of Saturday, July 19, authorities said.<\/p>\n
Officials responded to a call of shots fired at about 2 a.m. and discovered a chaotic scene in East Hollywood, according to the Los Angeles Police Department. One person was removed from a nearby business, who was determined to be the driver of a vehicle that ran into the crowd, Officer Jay Chaves told USA TODAY. Investigators learned that bystanders became involved in a “physical altercation” with the driver, who was shot.<\/p>\n
About seven people were in critical condition, six were in serious condition and 10 were in fair condition, the Los Angeles Fire Department said in a statement. At least seven others who were injured were not transported to hospitals for treatment, the fire department said. Chaves said 15 were transported to hospitals.<\/p>\n
The shooting suspect was at-large and described as a Hispanic male, about 5-foot-9 and 180 pounds, Chaves said.<\/p>\n
The fire department responded at about 2 a.m. and had over 120 personnel working the scene.<\/p>\n
