In the early hours of Monday in Wilmington, Los Angeles, a severe car accident resulted in a fiery blaze that left two individuals dead. The incident occurred at approximately 2:13 a.m. on the 1300 block of North Alameda Street, close to East O Street. The Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD) arrived promptly at the scene to find the vehicle completely engulfed in flames. After extinguishing the fire, firefighters made the grim discovery of two bodies inside the charred remains of the car.
The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) is currently investigating the deadly incident. As of now, the names and ages of the deceased have not been released, and it remains unclear whether they were wearing seatbelts at the time of the collision. The area was temporarily closed off for the collection of evidence and to facilitate the investigation into the circumstances of the accident.
In an official statement, LAFD spokesperson Nicholas Prange reported that the deceased were found within the vehicle after the blaze was put out. He further noted that the intensity of the fire made it impossible to immediately determine the age or gender of the occupants. The fatal outcome of the collision has prompted an extensive inquiry by authorities to ascertain the cause of the rapid fire engulfment and any contributing factors to the tragic event.
