'I need your help': Vehicle rams steps of Los Angeles City Hall; cardboard sign has message for Donald Trump

Los Angeles’s City Hall was evacuated after a car crashed into the steps of the building on Friday afternoon, according to officials.Approximately two hours after the crash, the driver was seen exiting the vehicle, walking with his arms raised towards a line of police and fire vehicles. He was subsequently handcuffed. There were no immediate reports of injuries, according to police. LA Mayor Karen Bass, in a post on the social platform X, said that the Los Angeles Police Department bomb squad had arrived at the crash site, adding that the situation had been “safely resolved.” She had previously mentioned that City Hall was being evacuated “out of an abundance of caution.” Police were attempting to contact the driver after responding to reports just after 4 pm about a traffic collision, according to Charles Miller, a spokesperson for the Los Angeles Police Department. Video footage from news helicopters showed the driver in the front seat and a cardboard sign in the window that reads, “I need ur help D TRUMP US VET” and ” Don’t want to hurt no body.” There were no reports of injuries, according to police.
