Call from my brother in LA a few minutes ago--he was in a car accident and his girlfriend is in the hospital. I don't know what shape she's in--they got nailed going through an intersection by some guy running a red light.
Two things:
He got nothing from the LAPD. In NY you get an accident report, but he has zero information. I told him to call them and get the report number or whatever he's supposed to have, but is there anything else he should know? He's concerned about legal/medical issues. He doesn't even have info about the driver who hit them, or about the witness who drove back and wanted to give him his information when the LAPD showed up and took my brother away--took him aside, I mean.
Second, I think he's at a hospital in East LA. Is this bad? He doesn't even know the name of the neighborhood, but should he get his GF moved elsewhere?
I did give him the phone number of a friend who's an LA judge, so I assume if he reaches that guy he'll get the info he needs, but any advice would be appreciated.
