4 injured in DTLA crash

Four people were injured after a car crashed into parked vehicles in downtown LA. 

LOS ANGELES - Four people were injured late Tuesday night after a driver lost control and crashed into parked vehicles in downtown Los Angeles, authorities said. 

What we know:

The crash happened at about 10:30 p.m. at the intersection of 7th and Hope streets.

Officials with the Los Angeles Police Department said a driver who was going "way too fast" lost control of the vehicle, crossed the road and slammed into two parked cars.

Inside one of the parked cars were two people who had been sleeping at the time of the crash.

A total of three or four people were injured, according to authorities. The fire department said two women in their 30s were in at least serious condition. Another woman in her 40s suffered non-life-threatening injuries after being hit by a car.

The crash was captured on a dash camera, and debris from the wreckage could be seen scattered at the scene.

Authorities initially received reports that the incident may have been a hit-and-run, but police later clarified that the driver remained at the scene and that they believe "this was just an accident."

Police are reminding drivers to "slow down and please don't drive distracted."
