A driver was struck in the chest by a large rock that crashed through his windshield while he was driving on the 10 Freeway in downtown Los Angeles on Thursday evening.
It’s unclear if the rock was thrown or fell from an overpass, according to the California Highway Patrol.
Video from the stringer service OnScene.TV shows a stalled pickup truck on the shoulder of the freeway with a gaping hole in the windshield. The vehicle was found by the Los Angeles Fire Department on the westbound side of the 10 Freeway at the 110 Freeway interchange near Adams Boulevard.
The unidentified driver reported that something flew through his windshield and struck him in the chest, according to Lyndsey Lantz with the Los Angeles Fire Department. The extent of the driver’s injuries were unknown, but he was taken to the hospital in an ambulance shortly before midnight.
