SUV Crash in West Hollywood Under LASD Investigation, Tragedy Strikes

Two SUVs Collide at Fountain and Spaulding, Leaving One Dead.

Traffic investigators from the West Hollywood Sheriff’s Station are investigating a fatal two-vehicle collision that occurred on Thursday, October 10, 2024, around 4:37 p.m. near the intersection of Fountain Avenue and Spaulding Avenue in West Hollywood, according to an LASD press release.

According to LASD’s preliminary reports, the crash involved two Ford SUVs. A male driver, who was the sole occupant of one vehicle, was traveling northbound on Spaulding Avenue. The other vehicle, driven by a male adult with a female passenger, was heading eastbound on Fountain Avenue. The vehicles collided as they entered the intersection.

The female passenger was transported to a nearby hospital, where she was later pronounced dead. According to the Los Angeles Fire Department, as reported in our previous article, one of the SUVs crashed into a building, and two people were trapped in the wreckage of their cars requiring the LAFD to extract them from the vehicles. 

A 30-year-old male involved in the crash was reported to be in serious condition and a 70-year-old man was reported to have non-life-threatening injuries.  

The cause of the crash is still under investigation. Authorities have not yet determined whether speed, alcohol, or drugs were factors in the collision.

Anyone with information about the incident is encouraged to contact the West Hollywood Sheriff’s Station traffic investigators at (310) 358-4038.
