LOS ANGELES — Video shows a wild crash on the 118 Freeway in Los Angeles in which a vehicle went flying into the air after being hit by a loose tire from a pickup truck nearby
The incident happened on Thursday, March 23, in Chatsworth, Los Angeles.
The video, which has since gone viral, shows the tire detaching from the truck and going underneath what appears to be a dark-colored Kia, sending it flying into the air and flipping it upside down. Debris was scattered across the freeway.
A spokesperson with the California Highway Patrol confirmed the Kia driver suffered minor injuries.
