A woman was gravely injured Tuesday after she fell or jumped from a parkway overpass in Highland Park and struck a passing car whose driver was unhurt.
About 10:20 a.m., authorities were alerted to a woman dangling from the Avenue 60 overpass of the Pasadena (110) Parkway, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department.
She then fell or jumped, hitting a vehicle, and was not expected to survive, according to LAFD spokeswoman Lyndsey Lantz.
The driver of the vehicle was not injured, Lantz said.
All northbound lanes of the parkway were closed between Avenue 52 and Avenue 60 after the incident.
One lane was reopened about 11 a.m., according to the California Highway Patrol.
