Los Angeles: Man charged after car ploughs into crowd, injuring 30
The driver was dragged by bystanders out of the Nissan Versa and beaten and shot.
At least 20 people have been injured after a vehicle drove into a crowd on Santa Monica Boulevard in Los Angeles.
Seven people have been critically injured, six are seriously injured and 10 are in a fair condition, the Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD) said.
Paramedics discovered that one of the patients had a bullet wound, LAFD Captain Adam VanGerpen said.
"This is under police investigation," he said, before adding "this will be a large investigation with the LAPD".
The incident happened at 02:00 local time (09:00 GMT) in East Hollywood and the LAFD said 124 fire personnel helped at the scene.
I heard it was 30 hurt now and the driver had the bullet wound.
Los Angeles. 2:00 AM. Crowd. Come on. I bet somebody was disrespected.
Unfortunately all the typical usual reasons are awkward so they'll likely delay talking about the 'why'.
