Initial evaluations following the car crash involving Alijah Arenas revealed that he did not suffer any broken bones, according to reporting from Shams Charania.
This development offers a small but hopeful sign amid an otherwise dire situation.
A Los Angeles Fire Department public information officer provided further details about the crash.
The incident occurred at approximately 4:55 a.m., when emergency personnel responded to a scene involving a Tesla Cybertruck that had collided with a tree and a fire hydrant.
A fire reportedly broke out at the scene following the impact.
While the LAFD did not release the identity of the individual involved, they confirmed that the driver was an 18-year-old male who was outside of the vehicle by the time responders arrived.
He was subsequently transported to the hospital in serious condition.
Despite the severity of the accident, the absence of broken bones suggests that Arenas may have avoided some of the more long-term physical injuries typically associated with such a crash.
His condition remains serious, but this early news has brought some relief to those closely following his recovery.
