A 12-year-old boy died in a collision between a car and a moving van in the San Fernando Valley on Wednesday morning, according to authorities.
The crash was first reported in the 4400 block of Woodman Avenue in Sherman Oaks around 10:15 a.m., the Los Angeles Fire Department stated.
While the circumstances surrounding the crash were initially limited, the LAFD stated that the vehicle had crashed into a parked moving van. Three people were transported to hospitals, and a fourth was pronounced dead at the scene.
He was identified only as a 12-year-old boy sitting in the front passenger seat.
