According to the L.A. Police Department, the incident occurred at the end of the school day during pick up at the rear of the campus, when the driver of a green 2025 Rivian SUV reportedly struck a 15-year-old boy as he was walking in between vehicles.

The boy was pinned and possibly crushed between the Rivian and a smaller, white SUV, officials said. LAFD paramedics rushed him, along with his uninjured father who witnessed the terrible accident, to the hospital where he succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced deceased.

    as he was walking in between vehicles.

    Not only is it a legal way to kill someone, but the media makes it always sound like the victim is at fault, “as he was walking in between vehicles.”

    Yeah, no shit. It’s not like he could have avoided walking between vehicles if the entire area is flooded with vehicles. What about the other 5 who were injured? What did they do to get hit? /s
