Hollywood multi-vehicle crash kills officer, injures others.
A three-car crash left six persons with minor injuries and one in severe condition.
An LAPD cruiser was involved in a four-vehicle collision that occurred on Monday in Hollwood. The collision resulted in multiple injuries and the death of a pedestrian.
The occurrence took place at approximately 3:50 p.m. located in close proximity to the intersection of Santa Monica Boulevard and N. Gower Street.
A video that was uploaded to the Citizen app appeared to show paramedics removing the man from underneath the police cruiser and then transporting him to the ambulance. In the end, he passed away at the hospital.
A automobile traveling west on Santa Monica Boulevard collided with a cruiser that was traveling north on Gower Street, according to the Los Angeles Police Department. The cruiser was carrying two officers at the time of the collision.
The commanding officer of the Los Angeles Police Department, Kelly Muniz, provided the following statement: “That caused the police vehicle to spin and strike a pedestrian who was in this north crosswalk.”
According to witnesses who were present at the incident, the man was pinned under the police cruiser, and bits of a guitar and shoes were found on the roadway behind the vehicle.
“Just now, I received a phone call informing me that my uncle was involved in a collision, and it was right down the road,” Paul Stiegelmar stated.

According to Stiegelmar, his aunt and uncle were riding a ridesharing to their place of employment at the time of the accident.
There were no major injuries sustained by them or anyone else in the automobiles that were involved.
During the time when authorities were trying to figure out what caused the incident, Santa Monica and Gower were both closed for several hours.
“They will be conducting a whole schematic and go through the whole light sequencing,” Muniz explained to reporters. “They will look at cameras nearby, they will look at the traffic cameras and we also have digital in car video.”
The two cops who were inside the LAPD cruiser were able to walk away from the collision after the airbags on the vehicle did deploy.
Muniz stated that even though there were two cops present in the vehicle, they did not receive any injuries. However, if we injure a person, it is always a horrible experience.
