A terrifying car crash in East Hollywood over the weekend left 37 people injured, including eight with serious wounds. Among them were local hot dog vendors Nicolas Suarez and his wife Maria Medrano, who are now speaking out for the first time about their harrowing experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nicolas Suarez and Maria Medrano were operating their hot dog cart near a popular nightclub when a vehicle suddenly rammed into the crowd. According to Suarez, he saw the car plowing into people before it struck both him and his wife.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI just remember lying on the ground, face-up, with the car close by,\u201d he recalled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Suarez sustained a broken leg, a fractured ankle, and severe bruising. Medrano suffered injuries to her shoulder, ribs, and arm, along with head trauma. She continues to experience chest pain days after the incident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The couple\u2019s hot dog cart, their main source of income, was completely destroyed in the crash. Replacing it will cost an estimated $600. Their children have since launched a GoFundMe campaign to help cover medical bills, physical therapy, and the cost of a new cart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe\u2019re just thankful they\u2019re still with us,\u201d said their daughter, Sarah Suarez. \u201cThey\u2019re recovering, but it will be a long road. They love what they do, and we\u2019ll keep supporting them every step of the way.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Authorities have identified the suspect as 29-year-old Fernando Ramirez from San Clemente. He has been charged and is currently being held without bail. Investigators suspect that both alcohol and anger were contributing factors in the crash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Public records show Ramirez has a criminal history, including convictions for battery, assault, petty theft, and child abuse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As the couple begins the road to recovery, their family and community are rallying behind them. The GoFundMe effort continues to grow as supporters hope to help them rebuild not only their business but also their lives after this senseless act of violence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
