Harrowing pictures show survivor of deadly North Hollywood Metro crash in hospital
An SUV hit a sidewalk vending area outside North Hollywood Metro station on Tuesday night, killing three people and critically injuring Sylvia Figueroa. The crash has left a familiar street vending spot without two longtime vendors and prompted condolences from Los Angeles mayor-elect Nithya Raman.
Figueroa suffered fractured ribs and underwent surgery, according to a fundraiser. Police say driver Ihor Demianenko, 61, was speeding and went around another vehicle before losing control; he was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence at twice the legal limit and booked on three counts of killing. His bail was set at $6 million, and the third person killed has not been identified.
In short
- Three people died in the North Hollywood crash.

- Police say the driver was allegedly twice the legal alcohol limit.
