Los Angeles, CA - Two Ejected in Olympic Blvd Crash
Los Angeles, CA (June 27, 2025) – A violent crash in downtown Los Angeles early Thursday, June 26, left two individuals critically injured after both were ejected from their vehicles near East Olympic Boulevard and Naomi Avenue. Emergency personnel from the Los Angeles Police Department responded to the scene around 2:30 a.m. following reports of a major injury accident.
Initial findings indicate that a vehicle ran a red light at the intersection before colliding with a forklift. The force of the collision caused both the driver of the car and the forklift operator to be ejected. Both were rushed to local hospitals for treatment and are listed in critical condition.
Reports from the Los Angeles Police Department show that the crash occurred in a busy part of the city, causing temporary traffic disruptions while crews investigated and cleared the scene. Authorities have not yet released the names of the injured individuals as the investigation continues.
We hope those injured in this accident recover rapidly.
Car Accidents in California
California consistently ranks among the states with the highest number of car crashes each year. According to recent data, tens of thousands of people are injured in traffic collisions annually across the state, with a significant portion occurring in urban centers like Los Angeles.
Understanding the repercussions of such crashes helps shed light on why they have such lasting effects. Here are a few key injury outcomes victims may experience:
- Spinal Cord Injuries: Car accidents can result in damage to the spinal cord, often leading to partial or full paralysis. These injuries frequently require long-term medical care and major life adjustments. Victims might need physical therapy, mobility aids, and even home renovations to accommodate their new needs.
- Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI): A sudden jolt or impact during a crash can cause TBIs, which range in severity. Even mild TBIs may lead to long-term cognitive or emotional challenges. Severe TBIs may involve prolonged recovery periods and significant lifestyle changes.
- Fractures and Broken Bones: Broken bones are among the most common injuries from car accidents. Recovery often involves surgery, casts, and months of rehabilitation. Complications such as infections or improper healing can also arise.
- Internal Injuries: Blunt force trauma from a collision can cause injuries to organs like the liver, spleen, or kidneys. These injuries are not always immediately apparent and can be life-threatening if not treated quickly.
- Psychological Trauma: Beyond physical harm, many victims struggle with anxiety, depression, or PTSD following a crash. These emotional wounds can be just as debilitating as physical injuries and may require therapy and ongoing support.
