The crash was reported shortly after 9 p.m. on Oct. 31 near the intersection of La Brea Avenue and Hollywood Boulevard. Security camera video showed the Rivian R1T electric pickup rear-end a car at a stoplight, then strike a BMW SUV before it ended up partially inside Raffallo's Pizza.
According to the complaint, Vela was stopped at the red light when his Hyundai Elantra was hit by the Rivian. Vela claimed the impact sent his car into the intersection where it collided with another vehicle, according to the complaint.
Vela was hospitalized after the crash.
The crash caused significant damage to an exterior wall of the pizza shop.
