Los Angeles, CA (January 9, 2026) – Authorities reported a hit-and-run crash involving an ambulance Wednesday afternoon on Arlington Avenue in Los Angeles, prompting a major police and emergency response. The event took place around 1:06 p.m. On the 7th of January. Authorities responded under code three conditions—using lights and sirens—because emergency medical personnel were involved and there was a potential for injury. The precise details of the collision have not been fully revealed, but early reports indicate that the ambulance was hit by another vehicle, which subsequently fled the scene.

The matter is still being investigated, with further updates anticipated as additional details emerge. Officers from the Los Angeles Police Department are continuing their search for the hit-and-run driver. No identifying information about the fleeing vehicle has been verified yet. This unusual and alarming incident underscores the dangers encountered by first responders in the line of duty. We’re relieved that no serious injuries have been reported thus far and encourage anyone with information to reach out to local authorities.
