Vehicle nearly crashes into Los Angeles Police Department station
A car nearly collided with a Los Angeles Police Department’s station Sunday morning.
According to LAPD Media Headquarters Officer Eisenman, the crash was reported at the department’s Olympic Station, located at 1130 Vermont Avenue in L.A.’s Pico-Union neighborhood, just after 9:30 a.m.
Video from the scene taken by KTLA shows the car — an older model red Ford Focus hatchback — stopped within inches of the station’s front door, almost as if the driver had deliberately parked there.
The station did not appear to be damaged.
No injuries were reported, Officer Eisenman said, and it was later confirmed that a traffic incident report was taken.
Investigating officers did not disclose whether impairment played a role in the near-collision.
The driver was not identified and no further details were released.
Luis Zuñiga and John Neis contributed to this report.
