Classic use of passive voice from the Associated Press, as if the vehicle intentionally committed a crime.

The longer they don't tell us the more we know.
You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Sadly most people in Los Angeles are only concerned about this story to the extent that it affects their commute.

Been way To long to get a report on the driver.  That being said I'm guessing the driver was not white.  He was Negro or a Beaner.  Being he was shot after the fact... pretty sure he was black or brown.  It is how they roll.

From what I saw a lot of Hispanics were injured.

Quote
At some point during the physical altercation, the driver was shot by a male who is still outstanding.

If I was a betting person, I would guess the shooter of the driver was probable Hispanic and probable illegal.

Now saying person that drove the car was drunk and kicked out of the club before driving into the crowd.

Edit:

The police issued this description of the person who shot the driver:
“Fled the scene on foot and was last seen heading westbound from Vermont Avenue and is described as a Hispanic male, approximately 5 feet 9 inches tall, 180 pounds, bald, wearing a blue jersey, and possibly armed with a silver revolver.”

The club was having a hip/hop and Rap session at that time.... 2am
