Los Angeles Family Sandwiched Between 2 Parked Cars When Road Rage Car Crashes
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 11, 2007
(AP) A road-rage crash critically injured a mother and her two small children who were crushed between parked cars, police said Wednesday.
Two men were booked for investigation of attempted murder in connection with the crash Tuesday in the San Fernando Valley.
The drivers of a black Nissan Maxima and a red Chevrolet Camaro got into a dispute shortly after 3 p.m. Tuesday in the Van Nuys area and began racing and weaving along city streets at 50 mph to 90 mph, police said.
The cars were "cutting each other off, they were jockeying for position," Detective Bill Butos said. "They were tapping on the brakes, one of the vehicles was tapping on the brakes, trying to cause the other vehicle to ram into the vehicle."
In Reseda, the Camaro slammed on its brakes and the Nissan tried to avoid it and hit a parked car, Officer Jason Lee said.
A 31-year-old woman and her two children were smashed between parked cars. (more at link)
