Just before 3 a.m., the Los Angeles County Fire Department and Los Angeles County Sheriff’s deputies responded to a reported traffic collision at the intersection of Fountain and La Brea avenues in West Hollywood.
First responders arrived to find a BMW that had crashed inside of the Trendsetters Barbershop, shattering the glass windows of the La Brea Avenue business. The BMW was reportedly struck by a white sedan, which fled the scene after the accident.
The driver of the BMW was transported to a local area hospital for treatment.
Yeah, this location is a disaster. I think that both the landlord/building owner and the City should consider installing concrete bollards on that corner. This is going to happen again. I hope Trendsetters can survive this business disruption (the last business didn’t survive the fire at the tattoo parlor next door).
There’s a vehicle into that building once every year or two it seems like. What is it about that intersection?
That’s the same intersection where Shia Labeouf crashed and overturned his pickup truck.
This location is cursed. There was a previous fire there at a former salon and in the past other cars have crashed into this location before too.
