No fewer than 30 people sustained injuries when a car ploughed into a crowd in Los Angeles early Saturday, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department.

Seven individuals are reported to be in critical condition, while six others are in serious condition. The incident occurred around 2 a.m. on Santa Monica Boulevard in East Hollywood.

Authorities say the vehicle, reportedly driven by someone who may have lost consciousness, veered off the road, hit a taco cart, and crashed into a group of people gathered outside a nightclub.

“A call came in around 2 a.m. about a traffic accident,” said LAFD spokesperson Adam VanGerpen. “Somebody had lost consciousness inside the vehicle, drove into a taco cart, and then ultimately ran into a large number of people who were outside a club in East Hollywood.”

There were also reports that one of the victims had sustained a gunshot wound, though officials could not confirm if the person was the driver.
