LOS ANGELES \u2013 Three people were killed and at least six others were hurt when a car slammed into a grocery store Thursday afternoon in Los Angeles, authorities said. <\/p>\n
The crash was reported shortly after noon at a 99 Ranch Market in the city’s Westwood neighborhood, according Los Angeles Fire Department spokesperson Lyndsey Lantz.<\/p>\n
Three victims died at the scene, Lantz said. Paramedics were treating six or seven patients, some in serious condition, she said. <\/p>\n
