In footage of the crash posted to the Citizen App the damaged aircraft, which appears to be upside down, can be seen beneath a low-lying limb of a nearby tree just off what a practice putting green.  

The area where the plane came to a stop had been cordoned off with yellow tape by deputies with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, who were also at the crash site.

Traffic chaos unfolds during KTLA reporter's live shot

Traffic chaos unfolds during KTLA reporter's live shot

Any Los Angeles-area driver can relate — the freeway accidents that cause traffic jams always happen at the worst possible times.

That appeared to be the case on Sunday morning. As KTLA’s Gene Kang was preparing to talk about the holiday travel rush from an overpass over the 110 Freeway near downtown L.A., he witnessed an interesting traffic situation.

While KTLA cameras didn’t catch the collision occur, the aftermath was clear. The driver of a sedan appeared to have crashed into a concrete overpass, causing significant damage to the front end car.

It wasn’t immediately clear if the driver or any other occupants were injured in the crash.

However, the cleanup forced officials to close two lanes on the 110, making just one lane open.

The traffic from that situation caused a large backup, as drivers are familiar with in L.A. While Kang was getting ready to report on some holiday travel tips, he witnessed multiple drivers performing illegal mauveurs, including driving right over a center median on the freeway.

That situation was clearly dangerous, as the drivers were steering right onto other lanes of the freeway, where others behind the wheel of their vehicles were going full speed.

Luckily, no other crashes occurred. The situation likely brought back some memories for Kang, who is no stranger to weird incidents while reporting live on KTLA.

In 2022, as he was talking about a hit-and-run on “one of the most dangerous roads in L.A.,” a car wreck happened in the background of one of his live shots. And in a weird twist-of-fate, it was also a hit-and-run. Of course.

Parking scam targeting Festival of Lights visitors in downtown Riverside

Riverside city officials are warning the public of a parking scam targeting visitors at the Mission Inn’s Festival of Lights.

The scam involves a fake QR code placed at pay stations in and around the downtown area, officials said.

When scanning the fraudulent QR codes, one version simply asks for credit card payment information. Another version offers users $1 parking if they pay with their Bank of America card.

  • Mission Inn Museum in danger of eviction from Mission Inn Hotel and Spa in Riverside

Both versions are not official city payment sites and will compromise users’ personal information.

Authorities are warning visitors to the Festival of Lights to be aware when paying for parking at a kiosk or meter. The fake QR codes are generally smaller than the authentic ones, officials noted.

When making payments, only use the official ParkRiverside app or website to pay. The website can be found here: RiversideCA.gov/Parking. The official app can be downloaded here.
