The Los Angeles Police Department confirms to Us Weekly that the driver, who they would not identify, was traveling eastbound on Preston Way at a high rate of speed. The vehicle ran off the road when it entered the intersection of Preston and Walgrove and collided with a residence on the 1700 block of Walgrove.
