At least 30 people were injured after a car plowed through a crowd in East Hollywood, Los Angeles, authorities said.
The incident took place outside the music venue The Vermont, near the intersection of Santa Monica Boulevard and Vermont Avenue in east Los Angeles. At least seven people are now in critical condition, six are in serious condition and more than a dozen were treated on site, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department. In total 23 patients were transported.
Among the injuries, the LAFD reported a male with a gunshot wound.
The crash occurred after an individual was removed from a nearby business, the Los Angeles Police Department said. That person then allegedly drove a vehicle into a crowd, according to police.
After the vehicle became disabled, bystanders in the crowd dragged the driver outside the car and began to physically assault them, according to police. At some point during the physical altercation, the driver was shot by a Hispanic male who is still outstanding. [Vigilante justice?]
The condition of the driver is unknown.
Authorities said 124 fire personnel are assisting at the scene.

Vans Warped Tour, the Original Punk Rock Circus, Returns to Long Beach
By Stephanie Mendez, L.A. Times
Sublime’s drummer Bud Gaugh says his most memorable moment at the first Warped Tour in 1995 was when he broke his ribs riding a BMX bike on a half-pipe during their stop in Houston, an incident, he says, later led to his arrest in Florida.
“I got arrested because [Warped Tour founder] Kevin Lyman wouldn’t let me go see a doctor,” Gaugh jokingly told The Times . “I was having a hard time breathing, I could not sleep. So, at the Orlando show that we were playing at, I found a girl whose mom was a nurse and she took me home and we raided the medicine cabinet, and I got some Vicodin and some other things to help me sleep. … Unfortunately I was arrested in the parking lot returning with those drugs in zero-tolerant Florida.”
Gaugh was bailed out, and after being on the road for two weeks with broken ribs, Gaugh finally received proper treatment in Massachusetts.
“That was an amazing memory,” he says.
This month, Gaugh returns with Sublime to the Vans Warped Tour for the festival’s 30th anniversary, playing with late singer Bradley Nowell’s son Jakob on vocals. Sublime was recently revealed to be one of the teased secret bands slated to play the shows in their hometown of Long Beach. Long Beach will be one of the first cities to hear their new song, “Ensenada,” live.
