LOS ANGELES, Calif. — A 6-year-old Bakersfield girl was killed when the car she was a passenger in crashed in Los Angeles according to the California Highway Patrol.
The CHP reported that a 31-year-old woman was driving a 2019 Subaru northbound on The Old Road in Stevenson Ranch at a high rate of speed when the vehicle veered into the southbound lane, striking a curb, as sign and a traffic signal. The vehicle than continued on across an intersection and struck another traffic signal, as well as a tree and a signal box.
The vehicle eventually came to rest and caught fire. The woman, the 6-year-old girl and a 2-year-old girl were pulled from the vehicle by good Samaritans.

ABC7 identified the 31-year-old woman as the mother of two children. They also reported that the woman was not wearing any clothes at the time of the accident.
