i feel so bad for the families of those who lost their lives or got hurt so badly in that crash 
my heart goes out to everyone affected by this tragedy 
i wonder if the driver was okay tho, and how long it'll take to figure out what happened 
anyway, just hope they get the help and support they need right now 
This is a super scary story! I'm shocked that 3 people lost their lives in such an accident, it's just not right. I'm glad the emergency services responded so fast tho 
, it's gotta be super tough for the firefighters and paramedics who were on the scene.
. The community is really coming together to support each other, that's awesome 
. But at the same time, it's still a really sad day, you know? I'm sending all my thoughts and prayers (not literally, lol) to the victims' families and loved ones. Let's hope they get the justice and support they need 
I'm still trying to wrap my head around it. And 7 others hurt? That's just devastating 
. can we pls get some format action goin on here? like, separate sections for different parts of the story? or even just some clear headings? it makes me wanna throw up 
. seriously though, a little formatting would make this article so much easier to read 
. I hope the investigation is thorough and they get to the bottom of what happened - it's gotta be super frustrating for them not knowing yet 
... it's wild how quickly info spreads nowadays! Anyway, my thoughts are with the families of those affected - may they get through this tough time 
. i hope the investigation turns up something helpful and that justice is served eventually 
. anyway, let's all just take a deep breath and send some positive vibes to those affected 
my heart goes out to them. LA is like, super crazy sometimes 
. I hope they find the driver responsible and get some answers soon 
. And to think that a silver sedan could cause so much destruction in an instant 
99 Ranch Market is literally everywhere now lol, you can't even walk down the street without tripping over one. Just wondering if they're gonna raise their prices now that the cops are always hanging around? 
like what did they do to deserve that anyway? and 7 others injured yeah thats bad but whats the point of all this fuss over one accident? news is just going to sensationalize it to get more views so lets not jump to conclusions. and another thing, why are we focusing on the driver who stayed at the scene? what about the people inside the car that caused the crash lol who even remembers their names anyway? and btw, 99 Ranch Market is like a huge grocery store, what did they expect with all those people walking around?
what's even crazier is that it happened during lunchtime when most people are trying to grab some food 
like, what were they thinking? driving on autopilot or something? 
anyway, the first responders did an amazing job 
my heart goes out to the families of the victims 
. I was just scrolling through social media when I saw this breaking news and it's just too much to take in... seven people seriously injured? That's so scary 
. Sending all my positive vibes to those who are helping with the rescue efforts 
and another 7 people hurt, hope they all pull through okay... LAFD was super quick to respond tho 
. Now it's a huge mystery how this happened, driver still hangin' out there 
first it's a car crash that kills 3 ppl & injures 7 others... like, can't they even drive straight for once? 
and now there's talk of another incident happening at the same store just last year?!
