SOUTH LOS ANGELES (KABC) — A scooter was apparently thrown onto the 110 Freeway, triggering a seven-car crash in South Los Angeles overnight.<\/p>\n
The incident was reported around 12:20 a.m. Tuesday, according to the California Highway Patrol. Multiple drivers were forced to pull over after someone tossed the electric scooter onto the northbound lanes from the Adams Boulevard overpass.<\/p>\n
Four vehicles sustained damage from the scooter, the CHP said. Video from the scene showed part of the scooter wedged underneath one of the cars.<\/p>\n
Those who were on the freeway at the time said they were in shock.<\/p>\n
“We thought something happened to the tire because when he was turning right, it was kind of like skidding, but then we realized something fell out of the car, and then a bunch of oil leaked out,” said Natalie, who witnessed the incident. “…We looked at the road, and it was a scooter.”<\/p>\n
The CHP said there were two separate crashes in the area, in addition to the scooter incident.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, another car was potentially struck by another object in South Los Angeles. Video shows an SUV with a shattered front windshield, but details about what exactly caused the damage were not available.<\/p>\n
CORRECTION: An earlier version of this report stated that a Lime scooter was tossed onto the freeway. This story has been updated to reflect that it was not a Lime brand e-scooter.<\/p>\n
