Los Angeles, CA (January 7, 2026) – A bicyclist was involved in a crash shortly after midnight Tuesday in the 900 block of South Figueroa Street, injuring one person and triggering a Code 3 emergency response. Dispatch records indicate that the incident occurred in front of a Panda Express restaurant and involved a black Jeep Grand Cherokee. Los Angeles emergency crews quickly responded to the scene following reports that a bicyclist had been hit by a vehicle. Although the cyclist’s condition has not been publicly revealed, the urgency of the dispatch and swift ambulance response indicate potentially serious injuries. The involved vehicle—a black Jeep SUV—was reportedly present at the scene or fleeing, but no identifying details like a license plate were provided. The precise details of the crash are still unclear, and officials have yet to verify if the driver stayed at the scene. Investigators from the South Traffic Division are now handling the case and are anticipated to collect surveillance video and witness statements to clarify the cause of the incident. The section of South Figueroa Street close to the university district and well-known restaurants sees heavy traffic from both motorists and bike riders, sparking concerns over visibility, right-of-way compliance, and vehicle speeds. Our thoughts go out to the injured cyclist, and we wish them a complete and swift recovery.
