One person was injured in a two-vehicle crash in
front of the landmark Pink’s Hot Dogs in Hollywood yesterday afternoon, police said.

One of the vehicles crashed into parking meters in front of the hot dog
stand at 709 N. La Brea Ave., but no one in the queue of customers waiting to
order at the eatery was struck, Officer Nuria Vanegas of the Los Angeles Police
Department’s Media Relations section.

An image posted to social media showed the white sedan on the sidewalk
between the curb and a line of patrons outside the famed business.

The Department of Transportation was summoned to tend to the downed
meters, Vanegas said.

A message on the Pink’s Twitter account (@pinkshotdogs) read: “Thank
goodness everyone is OK. Never before in 76 years. The Pink family thanks
everyone for their concerns.”
