Los Angeles, CA (July 3, 2024) – Child Struck by Vehicle in Exposition Park: A tragic incident occurred in the Exposition Park area of Los Angeles when a child was struck by a vehicle. The event, which took place late Monday night, has prompted an ongoing investigation by law enforcement.

On Monday night, just before midnight, officers from the Los Angeles Police Department’s Southwest Division responded to an emergency call at the intersection of West Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard and Halldale Avenue.

According to LAPD Officer Kevin Terzes, the accident involved an unattended child who had run into the street and was struck by a vehicle traveling westbound on MLK Jr. Boulevard. The child’s age was not immediately disclosed.

KTLA5, citing law enforcement sources, reported that the child was hit by a red Pontiac sedan.

Video footage from the scene showed the vehicle stationary in the middle of the road, encircled by caution tape as officers conducted their investigation.

The injured child was quickly transported to a nearby hospital, where he was treated for a head injury and initially listed in critical condition.

The motorist involved in the accident remained at the scene and cooperated with authorities. As of the latest reports, no arrests had been made, and the incident remains under investigation. The LAPD has urged anyone with information regarding the accident to call 877-LAPD-247.
