12 injured after single-vehicle crash on 5 Freeway in Los Angeles

As many as 12 people, including 10 children, were injured in a single-vehicle crash on the 5 Freeway in Los Angeles early Saturday morning, authorities said.

According to the California Highway Patrol, officers responded to an area just south of Sheldon Street in Sun Valley at about 1:27 a.m. after reports that the driver of a Chevrolet Suburban had crashed into a center median, overturning the vehicle and ejecting multiple passengers.

The CHP said two adults and 10 minors required medical assistance. All injuries were minor, the CHP said.

All 12 were inside the Suburban at the time of the crash. It's unclear if each passenger was wearing a seatbelt, or if all occupants were seated properly. Drug and alcohol use is not believed to be a factor in the crash.

No additional details were immediately made available.
