A car plowed into a group of individuals gathered outside a nightclub on a bustling street in Los Angeles early Saturday, leading to injuries for 30 people.

The injured were taken to nearby hospitals and trauma centers, as informed by Capt. Adam Van Gerpen, a spokesperson for the Los Angeles City Fire Department. According to a statement from the Fire Department, at least three of the injured were in serious condition after the incident on Santa Monica Boulevard in East Hollywood.

Van Gerpen noted that the crowd, primarily comprised of women waiting to enter a nightclub, was hit by a Nissan Versa, which also collided with a taco truck and a valet stand.

Paramedics discovered that one of the patients had a gunshot wound, Van Gerpen said. He told The Associated Press that the identity of that person was not yet known.

“This is under police investigation,” he said. “This will be a large investigation with the LAPD.”

People inside the club came out to help in the minutes before emergency crews arrived, he said, to help the victims.

“They were all standing in line going into a nightclub. There was a taco cart out there, so they were … getting some food, waiting to go in. And there’s also a valet line there,” he said. “The valet podium was taken out, the taco truck was taken out, and then a large number of people were impacted by the vehicle.”
