Not surprisingly it started out as a slow news day. I was assigned to cover a couple small festivals when I got the call for a MTA vs. Auto accident just south of downtown on Olympic. The vehicle in the photo was attempting to make a left turn while the metro was about to roll through the same intersection. The driver was killed instantly and his body was still in the car when I arrived. The rear drivers side passenger is said to have stumbled out of the vehicle but died within seconds on the street near by. I ran into a fellow camera operator, Robert from FOX for the first time since I stopped training with him 4 months ago.
