Three people were transported to a Los Angeles County hospital with major injuries Friday morning after they were involved in a fiery crash on the Angeles Forest Highway.

The crash happened before 11 a.m. and involved at least two vehicles, one of which was a Maserati sports car.

First responders found the Maserati crashed on the side of the road with flames engulfing the vehicle. Firefighters were able to knock down the fire around 11:15 a.m. to rescue the injured patients.

According to the Los Angeles County Fire Department, three people were transported from the scene, including one person in critical condition.

Video from Sky 5 showed the scorched car on the side of the roadway where it apparently hit the hillside. A second vehicle with major damage, a Toyota van, was being loaded onto a flatbed, with California Highway Patrol officials stating that the vehicle was driven by an innocent bystander traveling in the opposite direction of the Maserati.

A third vehicle, which appeared to be a Porsche, was parked near the side of the road not far from the scene of the crash.

Authorities are investigating the possibility that the Maserati and the Porsche were street racing in the moments leading up to the violent crash.

The crash remains under investigation and the roadway was closed to through-traffic for over an hour as crews cleaned debris from the scene. By 12:20 p.m., all lanes of the roadway were reopened to traffic, according to the CHP incident log.
