Unlicensed Teen Causes Major Crash into Subway and House
VAN NUYS, CA (April 21, 2024) — A speeding vehicle driven by an unlicensed 15-year-old crashed into a Subway restaurant and a neighboring home in Van Nuys on Friday night.
The teen car crash in Van Nuys occurred around 10:30 p.m. on Saticoy Street, east of Sepulveda Boulevard, and left three people injured.
Surveillance video captured the vehicle losing control at a high speed and violently smashing through the Subway’s outdoor seating area. The car then collided with a BMW sedan, flipped over, and ultimately came to rest atop four other vehicles in an adjacent driveway. The chaos attracted a large crowd, with Sky5 capturing the immediate aftermath and the local community’s reaction.
Reports indicated that drug paraphernalia was found near the crash site, and at least one victim was ejected from the vehicle.
