A two-vehicle crash in the Harvard Park area of Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve killed a father and daughter and critically injured a mother and toddler, authorities said Monday, Jan. 1.

The family’s car was violently forced into a street sign and fence on the southwest corner of 60th Place and Normandie Avenue, where good Samaritans tried to remove all four passengers from the smoking sedan, police said.

LAFD responded to the scene and transported the two young sisters and mother to a nearby hospital. The father was pronounced dead at scene, and the oldest of the two sisters was also pronounced dead by medical staff at the hospital.

The young mother and toddler were listed in critical condition, police said.

The driver of the SUV was also transported to a nearby hospital and being treated for serious but non-life-threatening injuries.
