- Los Angeles Fire Department and Police Department were dispatched to the 6700 block of south Normandie Avenue for a traffic collision with fire. Rescue 857 was first on scene and found a two vehicle traffic collision with a fully involved ice cream truck on its side. Rescue 857, along with LAPD, nearby residents, and a private "fire patrol" company used fire extinguishers, garden hoses, and a small hose to attempt to extinguish the fire until a fire company arrived. According to witnesses, a female patient was trapped in the burning ice cream truck. A male patient from the ice cream truck had attempted to rescue the female from the burning vehicle but was unable to do so. He was treated and transported by LAFD paramedics. According to witnesses, the female that was in the burning ice cream truck had unfortunately passed away. LAPD South Traffic is handling the investigation.
South Los Angeles, CA - 7/4/21
These are the neighbors you want living next to you or at the very least living in your neighborhood . Hats off to you people . God be with you.
No doubt..didn't see a single person standing around filming to get some social media cred..
As a 35yr Professional Firefighter/EMT I can't "THANK" people enough who help and assist others before, during and after our arrival. God Bless those that act on behalf of others.
The quotation marks serve no purpose here, makes it look like you’re being sarcastic, which I don’t think you are.
I will be sarcastic. It was a piss poor job by very well paid firefighters. Vollies would have saved her.
@@gchsbus that was an unnecessary remark. If you are a volunteer firefighter it would also be unprofessional. Under these circumstances I don't believe anyone could have saved the victim.
@@chandlerbing9333 Exactly. There's a website called "The 'Blog' of Unnecessary Quotation Marks."
@@chandlerbing9333 I love the courage the people around put together to make sure the fire is stoped I salute all greetings. How are you doing hope the weather condition over there is favourable
Props to those bystanders. We all know that a garden hose isn’t gonna help , but they stood their until the end to help. Faith to humanity.
God bless ‘em for helping but they don’t know that water just makes an ice cream fire worse. You have to use whipped cream to fight an ice cream fire.
🍨 🍦 🔥 🔥🔥
@@alitlweird the joke might be funny if someone didn’t die.
If I had a choice between a garden hose and nothing I would have picked the garden hose as well.
A garden hose will most definitely help, people have used nothing more then a garden hose to protect their entire property from a wildfire. The issue is there isn't enough flow or velocity to really reach and put out a large scale fire, and would be slow moving but would eventually put the fire out
They were not bystanders
All of these great folks in the neighborhood are the real heroes. They stepped up and helped in any way they could.🏆
You’re absolutely right. they are the real heroes and if I had been in that van they would’ve been the only ones I would be counting on to perhaps save my life
If anyone wants to donate it'd on my bio.. thank you. My mother didn't deserve this💔
Get some free ice cream🍦 from the truck 😂
She was my local ice cream truck lady she was very sweet always giving free ice cream to kids. I was shocked and so sad to find out she passed this way. It’s horrible
If you want to donate for my mother funeral and burial it's on my bio.. or please share the donation page.. thank you. My mother didn't deserve this.. the drives also passed away days later..
Your mother was the driver of the ice cream truck? I’m very sorry and I hope you’re doing better. I lost my father so I know the pain you’re going through. Do you know how this accident happened? Did you also say the driver of the other car passed away? God bless
My mother is an Ice Cream Truck Owner. She knew the lady that tragically died inside. The driver of the black SUV was under the influence and was racing another car when they hit the ice cream truck. It was horrific to hear from my mom how the lady was trapped by the ice cream machine that fell on top of her and was unable to get out. She left behind two children and her husband.
I hope the other driver is prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
My mom is also an ice cream truck driver and she told me what happened. She also knew the lady. So sad
So sorry to hear that. Hope your mother stays safe.
Being a car enthusiast and a firefighter, if that driver was racing and DUI he should get min. manslaughter. Once you hear a person screaming because they are trapped and end up burning alive, it stays in your memory.
Condolences to everyone involved. 🙏
How awful. May she rest in peace.
The guy in the black shirt with the garden hose is a true first responder / hero. Prayers to the lady and her family
Losing sucks. Losing a life to a fire... beyond sucks.
That's horrible. Hope the female is in paradise with the lord for eternity.
May God hold her in the palm of His hand.....🙏
amen
She is if she was trusting Jesus Christ for her eternal salvation.
Grow up and stop believing in fairy tales. A space wizard with magic abilities? Fucken insane lol. If god exists than technically harry potter does too. Every god believer I knew was mentally unstable.
@@BenLA5 Thanks for participating, ben...🙏
Not even the slowly moving ice cream truck is safe.
I normally say “good catch” to some great fire buff video taking, but that would not be appropriate today. Your video does a great job of showing how total strangers can come together to try and help total strangers! What a tragic accident and sad to see what happened. Kudos to the brave bystanders, neighbors, “Fire Patrol”, and Rescue 857 that tried hard to help!!!
Who was that “Fire Patrol” person? Is she with the FD?
Actually it looks to me like if anything, whoever edited this did as much as they could to edit out things to try and make the firefighters come out looking better than what they should have.
@@seanm4770 Is that why that woman was not wearing a helmet And didn’t seem to have any clue on where she should aim the water?
@@GOLDVIOLINbowofdeath another CZcams professional firefighter
@@GOLDVIOLINbowofdeath maybe, but at least she tried and did something. All these people.
As a volunteer firefighter I appreciate the bystanders aid and communication that someone is trapped considering time is of the essence there is always priorities on scene but the sooner knowing someone is trapped the sooner we can get aid too them again good on you bystanders
That's so freaking sad!! Poor lady suffered in her last minute.i just hope by faith that she is rewarded in heaven.sometimes it's hard to understand why things like that happen.but don't loose your faith

@@Angellizaofficiall That means the end of their Ice Cream Truck business.
I'm glad the private forestry fire people were there so the guys off the rescue at least had a hose line to work with. They were in tough spot, being just a medical unit.
Those neighbours gave it their all especially the guy with the hose till the very end. It’s people like those men who give you hope. I also want to give props to that lady firefighter, she didn’t even have a helmet or face cover on and she just went head on in and all over that truck looking to put out that fire and find that lady in there. So sorry about the passing of the Ice Cream Lady and blessings to her family. That little ass car must have been going hella fast to tear that truck apart like that.
Great Video as well…
she was part of the brush fire crew, no gear for urban situations.
What an unbearable tragedy. This is something that will say with everyone who was there. Unfortunately, by the time the video started. She was already dead.
Don’t ever assume what has been edited out of a video or not when you don’t know. Clearly this is edited video the question is by whom and for what purpose
@@GOLDVIOLINbowofdeath ????????????
@@Flackvest probably some meth / crack head on their cell phone while blasted out of their mind. They speak ZERO sense.

I feel for the victims and I also happy for the courage the people around put to make sure the fire is outed oo. Greetings from Miami hope you're good and the weather condition over there is favourable
Sad that the poor lady lost her life and for the ones that heard her screams, will be be forever affected. Hearing that and knowing despite all efforts you cannot save them, yes, for any human with a soul, it hurts.

I got the notification on the citizen app soon after this happened and the male that was with the female that passed away explained how he was driving the truck and that he tried to get her out and how he was unable to free her. He was visibly in shock and burned, when bystanders asked where the woman was after asking if there was anyone else in the ice cream truck [at the time of the accident] the man driving said “se quemo” (Spanish for she was burned)
Such a tragic story. Praying for everyone involved.
Bendito! How sad.que triste.thank God there where no kids buying ice cream when that happened

He unfortunately passed away days later due to the burns and not able to breath.
Shit. Hats off to all of those folks for trying so hard. Great teamwork. After 31 years in EMS those are really tough calls and stay with you a long time.
Oh, you’re fine. Jesus. 🤦🏻♂️
@@V1AbortV2 ?
@@V1AbortV2 aww someone doesn't understand that being a first responder fucks up your mental health
@@maxhallman1036 Good way to put it. 24 year ff, after many scenes like this one some guys/girls end up with various degree's of ptsd, depression, survivors guilt, prescription drug use and some abuse to dull the intensity because you can't get it to fully go away.
Been on the fire department for 2 years, my first fatality was a single vehicle MVA that caught fire....woman was trapped inside. Unfortunately it was at the edge of our response area and took us awhile to get out there...we worked our asses off to try to save her but it was long out of our hands and she succumbed to the fire. Of all the things i've seen, that one has been the hardest to move past..
Thanks goes out to the guy with the garden hose. It helped hold back the flames until LAFD could arrive.
It is amazing the help you get from within any local community when bad things happen.
Lots of good people out there!

Everyone knew the lady that died
So sad. So sorry for the family that lost their loved one. I can't speak for everywhere but I know our ice cream truck driver was such a big part of the community when I was growing up. He knew all of us by name and he was at almost every community special event and on really hot days he would give out ice cream at half price just because #heat. So to me an ice cream truck driver is part of what brings a community together, and its awesome to see a community come together for them... So sad that this person didn't make it. But that is an awesome community and fire brigade, you all did a great job trying everything you could!
I watched a co-worker die like this. The sound of him pleading still haunts my dreams. It's terrible for all involved.
Ì send you Love!!
damn man thats tough.. i cant imagine the horror of witnessing that. i wouldnt be able to sleep for weeks
@@brody8857 =i was jerking off watching this video==am i weird ?
That's horrifying. Was that a car crash or an industrial accident or what? I 100% understand if you don't want to talk about it, I'm sorry you and him were in that accident.
What happened
Man I feel for those guys. They are never NEVER going to forget her screams. I've been there...
The ice cream lady was hit by a drag racing drunk driver .. he slammed into her, and the ice cream machine pinned her down in the truck .. 😥
@@madosfiles well dang...
@@historyhunter5215 😢😢😢😢
I've had 2 calls like this one where the person was trapped and we couldn't get them out before they died, both times we had guys injured and burned because they wanted to get them out. One call was a 18 year old boy (he was alive and screaming when we got there but he as too entangled in his car) and his 16 year old friend/gf on their way to a youth Bible study and they were hit by two drunk men in the country illegally speeding, some said 80+ mph who spit on the first responders who were trying to help them even after what they had done. It took place at the intersection of a major retail/restaurant development and there were several hundred people screaming and yelling while we worked it. Total nightmare.
@@Thunderbyrd. yep, the guy I watched was trapped in a 18 wheeler that was on fire when another guy and myself got to him.Once it started hissing we couldn't do anything but run,and minutes later it blew and took half the bridge... He actually clipped me as he came across the median. The truck was said to be in it for about 2 miles before he went over a bridge embankment. Guy saved ALOT of lives that day by taking his own....
Condolences to the families of the two people in the truck. RIP. Great responsiveness by the nearby residents and the Fire Patrol that happened to be nearby. That was a terrible no win situation. I hope the driver who caused this is brought to justice.

That poor lady. Rip. Seemed like everything went so slow
Its funny seeing my own name in the comments
@@ReleaseTheQuackers This corny woman here...
I think the fire department is a waste !! They are SLOW !!! AS A PROFESSIONAL YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO MANEUVER THE TRUCK FASTER TO PARK AND GET ALL THEIR EQUIPMENT PUT FAST BUT NOOO THEY ARE WALKING AND LOOKING LIKE WTF ?? DO YOUR WORK FASTER.. I MOVE FASTER AT WORK DELIVERING BOXES.. THEY NEED TO STEP IT UP ALLL OF THEM
If you knew the average length of time it takes the fire department to respond to any emergency no matter how close it is you would take more precautions to be able to fight fires and things on your own because if you’re depending on them good luck. The Ghost warehouse fire in Oakland that killed over 30 people was about one block from the fire station. I carry two medium fire extinguishers in my sprinter van at all times, by separate doors.
@@4-matic212 By the time they got there it was WAY too late for the trapped lady
Prayers for the lady who died. And a big hug for the guy with the hose.
Is it just me or does L.A. have alot of fatal car accidents!
Just you
No they do. People drive like idiots.
All major cities do. Lots of people. Lots of cars. Lots of wrecks. Just how it goes.
@@Andy-je3el ppl going too fast
No it’s not just you. I run into dumbasses on the road daily. No one here knows how to drive for shit. It’s like they hand out licenses in California
damn thats rough, they tried their best, sad stuff.
My thanks and respect to those firefighters & extra for that woman hosing right up close with no face protection but sunglasses! My prayers and condolences to the victim's family. 🙏
My God to hear that poor lady screaming & then complete silence is traumatic. Condolences to her family and we appreciate all those who tried so hard to save her. God bless.
Props to the bystanders for doing something not just film the incident.
RIP to the lady.

My condolences to the woman that passed away in the accident, Nice work dude.
Man that ain’t right. I can imagine all those big catering trucks are susceptible to fire. Give them some room they can not move fast.
RIP 🙏🏽🍦💙
Tragic. Thanks to those who stepped in to help
It's really nice to see people risking their lives to save others. It's so sad to know there was a life lost right before our eyes. I know I'm going to catch hell for this but on one hand there was no way she would have ever lived a normal life after going through that. Her pain through several surgeries and suffering burns like that would have made her life a living hell. I'm so sorry this happened. That lady was someone's daughter, sister, aunt, probably a mother with family and friends who loved her. I hope she is resting peacefully. The one takeaway from this was the effort by so many who did all they could to help a total stranger with horrible conditions. That was a bad fire and horrible accident
I feel for the victims and I also happy for the courage the people around put to make sure the fire is outed oo. Greetings from Miami hope you're good and the weather condition over there is favourable
Hello my friend. I’m not in the city where this happened. I’m in Seattle. I hope you’re well

What a tragedy, it must have been a high speed collision going by the degree of destruction suffered by both vehicles.
Some lady was speeding my nephews were her last costumers the crash happened while they were going home to eat their ice cream my brother in law is the one that asked if they were from the fire department
God bless all of the caring people that day who did all they could to try and save her.
So sad Rip
To her.
Rip in heaven.
Truly devastating. Brings tears to my eyes.
Tragic event, great effort by everyone involved trying to save this woman.
My heart goes out to all who attempted to save the lady in the fire,I know you too will suffer for a long time, I hope if you need help you seek it 💜 I hope the people in the other vehicle don’t suffer any long term or life changing injuries 💜 RIP the lady in the ice cream truck 🕊🕯my sincere condolences to her family and friends.

Such a horrible incident, going to be some serious mental issues for many involved, amazing to see all those people trying to help to...
Absolutely heart breaking for the outcome but absolutely wonderful to see what they did to try and help.
R.I.P and condolences to the ladies family and friends.
The encouragement and hope in the words from the bystanders, “ you guys got this come on bro” they were so hopeful to save the lady .
My grandfather was a hartford fireman in 1960 to 1980. The only bystanders he dealt with were people trying to prevent them putting out the house fires. He was even stabbed by someone in 73 for blocking his car in the driveway.
Wow Excellent job by all involved. This brought me to tears. Proved Most people do care for others.
Deepest condolences to all who love her.

A lot of people like to shit on California and especially cities like LA, but the sense of community there was incredible. This is America. Tragic ending, but I’d rather be in an accident in a neighborhood like this over Beverly Hills any day.
So nice to see everyone trying to help
My condolences go to the victims family
Great footage!
Props to the medic crew doing what they can with what they have.
That's never a good day when an ice cream sandwich gets burned.
We should all carry atleast 1 or 2 fire extinguishers in the car.
Fire extinguisher would have been relatively useless against that inferno.
@@davidschneyer worth a try to buy time and break through the windshield.
Definitely. I carry a 5 lb Purple K and a 5.5 lb monoammonium phosphate ABC.
@@frankmata1812 ahh yes because a single watercan or extinguisher is gonna allow you to do that
@@davidschneyer A fire can be put out before it's gets that far out of control is the point of a fire extinguisher.
As a firefighter I can tell you, that garden hoses ain't gonna do a thing! But by God, fair play to all those bystanders throwing buckets of water, hoses! Basically anything! Fair play to you all!
Great coverage
Tragic prayers 🙏 for all involved.
omg, thats horrible!! thats my old neighborhood, I liked it there, as you can see, the
neighbors all look out for each other, and are helpful like that... good people...
I remember an ice cream truck used to come around all the time playing,
'row, row, row your boat....' I wonder if it was the same one....
rip...
That was crazy.. so sad the lady didn't make it. Definitely not the way u want to go R.I.P.
Lol
WASTED ICE CREAM !? A POOR WOMAN BURNED TO DEATH HOW INSENSITIVE CAN YOU GET.
Omgosh. Prayers to the family
Those bystanders have hearts of gold. ❤️
RIP to the lady. So sad.
That's kinda scary to die like that. I just lost one of my high school buddies to a fiery car crash in November. Her and her bf were traveling through Congress, AZ, and someone who wasn't paying attention before they tried to pass another car in front of them, just went right on ahead and tried to go around by driving into oncoming traffic without looking first, and hit my friend and her bf head on and they all 3 died at the scene. She was 23 days shy of her 41st birthday and leaves behind 7 kids and 2 grandkids. One of my best friends. So sad to know that's how she left this world. I'm still in disbelief. Seeing this makes it all the more real and scares the living fuck outta me. You're one brazen dude to stand so close to that fire and film. Condolences to the family of the deceased... :(
Life in prison for those who were racing and under the influence!!
There is NOOOOOOOO excuse in the world for what they did. NONE!!
May she RIP and condolences to her family!
💔💔💔😢😢😢
Wow! I've never seen a neighborhood get so involved in helping each other out. Did the lady in the ice cream truck get out? I didn't see that..
In the description part of this video just below the picture it says that the lady passed away while inside the truck. Comments also mention she was pinned under the icecream machine and that she had a husband and kids. The community pulled together as a team to help but were unable to rescue her in time.
Amazing to see LA citizens & private fire fighters in action... God bless our 1st responders too 🙏🏽
My condolences to the family affected.
I can tell that the car was speeding by the way it tipped over the truck.
more than likely when the suv hit the step van the rear wheels went over the front of the suv and caused the van to roll, does not have to be high speed!
I just felt a little less safe seeing the reality of the crew that showed up to help. You have my full respect, but wow, those first responders did not look ready.
Wow great footage. Prayers to the families
ah man rip. Reminds me of a story of my dad who is a paramedic on the ambulance in the Netherlands. A car crashed to a pylon on a large highway bridge at they were driving behind it and saw it happen, the driver was stuck in the car and caught fire. My dad and his colleague saw that man burning in front of their eyes with nothing they can do. My dad had a few sleepless nights after this, one of the worst things he has seen on his job.
This is something that is not forgotten.
Very sad and unfortunate. Accidents are getting more brutal than ever before, drive safely.
Prayers for the family of the deceased woman and injured man. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
What a horrible way to go, rip🙏
Those delivery type trucks aren't very safe. If you're in one watch out for everyone else
Heartwrenching when they said she was screaming for help, OMG RIP.
Hats off to the bystanders for their attempts with water instead of cellphones.
Nice to see neighbors pitching in under such difficult circumstances.
Damn I didn’t know she passed, I checked the scene out later in the evening after someone telling me a food truck had been hit and tipped. The wreck was still there with tape but the woman’s body must have been recovered by then. So sad
Very sad situation. Yet no one screaming. Everyone working together with the tools provided. Great work by the first responders and the good citizens 👍🏽
GOD BLESS the families and the victims
My sincerest condolences to her family and friends and prayers to the first responders. 😢🙏🏻
Wow absolutely incredible. Great footage. Rest in peace to the person and prayers for the family. 🙏🏻
thank you to these residents who did what they could with their garden hoses.
Can't understand the amount of damage here. Someone had to be going like a bat outta hell and pretty sure it wasn't the ice cream truck. Bad, bad, bad...
RIP, lucky no children were injured.
