Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.A woman has crashed her car through the lobby of a police station in Los Angeles with an infant in her vehicle.
At 4.45am on Saturday a woman, whose name has not been released, drove into the Harbor Division station, which was closed at the time.
Video footage shows the woman, whose name has not been released, manoeuvring around barriers and crashing through the glass doors.
She is then seen to pull into the lobby of the police station and begin reversing back with her door open, almost knocking down an officer.
The woman and the child, whose age is not known, were taken to hospital but they are not believed to be seriously injured, according to ABC.
The woman has been taken into custody and it is unclear why she drove into the station but police did say it appeared she was under the influence.
Officers have not yet determined what, if any, charges she will face.
No further information has been released.
