The Redondo Beach community is mourning a tragic incident following the death of a driver in a fiery collision late Wednesday night. According to KTLA, emergency responders rushed to the intersection of Palos Verdes Boulevard and South Catalina Avenue shortly after 11:15 p.m. to reports of a devastating solo-vehicle crash.
Upon arrival and after somehow losing control, firefighters found a vehicle engulfed in flames due to hitting a light pole. The male driver of the vehicle was declared deceased at the scene, while a female passenger managed to sustain only minor injuries, reported ABC7.
The specifics of the driver's fatal injuries were horrific, with OnScene.TV, a freelance media firm on location, detailed that the driver had been ejected and then decapitated on impact, as per KTLA.
An investigation is underway by the Redondo Beach Police Department, whose officers are trying to piece together what could have caused such a violent accident, as noted by CBS News Los Angeles.
