Man dies after violent solo crash in Sherman Oaks
A man died in a single-car crash in Sherman Oaks early Wednesday morning, authorities say. According to a Los Angeles Police Department spokesperson, the collision occurred just before 1 a.m. in the 3600 block of Sepulveda Boulevard. “It appears that the driver was traveling northbound on Sepulveda when he lost control, crossed the center median and struck a light pole,” the spokesperson confirmed. “Only the driver was in the car and no other victims or patients were reported.” The identity of the decedent was not immediately known. Graphic video obtained by KTLA shows the deceased victim still inside the wrecked vehicle while Los Angeles Fire Department first responders worked to drag the car away from the pole it was wrapped around. His body was eventually wrapped in a white sheet before it was removed from the scene. It was not clear right away what caused the man to lose control of his vehicle.
