Alijah Arenas, an 18-year-old basketball star committed to the University of Southern California (USC), is in a coma following a severe car crash in Los Angeles on Thursday, April 24, 2025.

According to LAPD Officer Rosario Cervantes, the accident occurred at 4:56 a.m. when a Tesla Cybertruck struck a fire hydrant and a tree near Corbin Avenue and Blythe Street in Reseda.

The crash left the Cybertruck heavily damaged, with shattered windows and a crumpled frame wrapped around a tree.

Video footage obtained by TMZ showed bystanders attempting to assist Arenas, lying face down in the street, before briefly trying to stand. A source close to the incident confirmed Arenas is in a coma, and authorities do not suspect drugs or alcohol as factors. The driver was taken to a local hospital in stable condition. Later, the vehicle caught fire at a tow yard, prompting a response from Los Angeles hazardous materials teams.
