2 Hospitalized After Car Crashes Into Motel Room

CULVER CITY, CA — Two people were hospitalized Monday after a car drove through a wall into a motel room near the Los Angeles-Culver City border.

The driver of the car worked for a rental car company, according to Brian Humphrey of the Los Angeles Fire Department. The car ran through a wall and into a one-story motel room about 5:30 p.m. in the 4900 block of South Sepulveda Boulevard, near the Ballona Creek, Humphrey said.

A man and woman inside the room were taken to a hospital with minor injuries, Humphrey said.

Personnel from the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety are at the scene assessing the structural integrity of the building, which was built in the 1940s.
