Two women were killed and a man critically injured Tuesday when they were struck by a vehicle in a crosswalk, authorities said.
Sgt. Chris Tatar of the West Hollywood sheriff’s station said at least two cars were involved in the accident, which occurred at 6:24 p.m. near the corner of Fountain and La Brea avenues, on the border of West Hollywood and Los Angeles.
After colliding with another vehicle, one car continued along Fountain and struck the pedestrians in the crosswalk, Tatar said.
A 65-year-old woman died at the scene and an unidentified woman died after being taken to a hospital. The third pedestrian, an unidentified man, was in critical condition, Tatar said.
