According to CNN, three people died at the scene and at least three others were taken to local hospitals in critical condition. The driver was among the injured.
LAPD Captain Warner Castillo told the media that tests were being conducted to determine whether or not the driver was under the influence.
"We don't know if it was done intentionally or if it was done by accident," Castillo said.
A witness, Angela Parker, said she knew four of the women caught up in the crash; they were food vendors who would feed the needy in the area.
