A man died and two officers with the Los Angeles Police Department were injured after a traffic collision Monday, authorities confirmed.

The crash took place just before 2 p.m. in the area of 10900 West Saticoy Street in the Sun Valley neighborhood of Los Angeles, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department.

Two vehicles were involved in the collision; one being driven by a civilian, and the other by a LAPD officer.

The civilian, identified only as a man between 60 and 70 years old, was pronounced dead at the scene after firefighters used hydraulic-powered tools to pull the doors off of his vehicle and extricate him, according to LAPD Detective Meghan Aguilar.

Two LAPD officers were transported to a local hospital. They both complained of pain from injuries sustained in the crash but are expected to be released later Monday, Aguilar said.

During a press conference, Aguilar said that the officers were en route to a restraining order domestic violence call. As they continued towards the call on Saticoy Street, the civilian began to make a left turn from Saticoy onto Cleon Avenue, at which point the LAPD cruiser struck the driver's side of the car, according to Aguilar.

Friends identified the victim Monday night as a man named Jose. They say he had just left from a home in the area, where he picked up some desserts as part of a tradition between his family and another. 

They say that he leaves behind his wife and three children. 

No additional details were immediately made available as the investigation continues. Officials said they would review digital in-car video and body-worn camera footage to review.
