A fatal two-vehicle crash occurred in North Hollywood early Saturday morning, resulting in the death of a 25-year-old woman and the hospitalization of another driver. 

The Los Angeles Police Department reported that a car and a pickup truck collided at the intersection of Tujunga Boulevard and Sherman Way.

North Hollywood Resident Killed:

The deceased woman, identified as a resident of North Hollywood, tragically lost her life at the scene of the accident, according to an LAPD spokesperson speaking to ABC7. The driver of the pickup truck, a 28-year-old man, sustained “minor-to-moderate” injuries and was transported to Providence Holy Cross Medical Center for treatment.

Authorities are investigating the possibility of the crash, with initial suspicions pointing towards a potential red light violation by one of the involved parties.

While the pickup truck driver is not supposed to drive under the influence (DUI), he is cooperating with law enforcement officials as they gather information to determine the exact sequence of events leading to the collision.

Scenes from the Crash Site:

News footage captured the heart-wrenching moment when the parents of the deceased woman arrived at the scene of the crash. The collision’s severity is evident from the extensive damage sustained by both vehicles, with the front end of the truck and the driver’s side of the sedan visibly mangled.

Plea from Law Enforcement:

In light of the tragedy, a spokesperson from the LAPD issued a plea to the public, urging vigilance and adherence to traffic regulations. Emphasizing the importance of obeying speed limits and traffic signals, the officer implored drivers to prioritize safety to prevent similar accidents from affecting their families.

The fatal crash serves as a sad reminder of the devastating consequences of reckless driving and intersection collisions. 

As the North Hollywood community mourns the loss of a young life, residents are encouraged to reflect on the importance of responsible driving habits and ensuring the safety of all road users.
