At least 30 hurt after vehicle strikes LA crowd. The driver was then shot by bystander, police say.

At least 30 people were injured – seven of them critically – when a vehicle drove into a crowd waiting in line outside an East Hollywood nightclub early Saturday, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department. Arriving firefighters found a vehicle had driven through a large number of people in front of The Vermont Hollywood music venue. “They drove through a taco stand, through the valet podium, and then through the crowd of people that were waiting to go inside,” said Capt. Adam VanGerpen, public information officer for the Los Angeles City Fire Department. “It was a very chaotic scene,” VanGerpen said. Once the car came to a stop, the driver of the vehicle was pulled out and physically assaulted by bystanders, according to Jeff Lee, public information officer with the Los Angeles Police Department. During the altercation, one of the bystanders shot the driver, Lee said. Police believe the driver was intoxicated, a law enforcement official briefed on the situation told CNN. CNN's Julia Vargas Jones reports from the scene, and CNN's Fredricka Whitfield speaks with LAFD Public Information Officer Erik Scott. #CNN #News
