Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) spokesperson David Cuellar said the incident occurred at Campbell Hall, located in Studio City, just after 3 p.m. local time on Wednesday, June 4, according to the Associated Press. The driver of a green Rivian SUV is said to have struck a 15-year-old boy who was walking between cars at the rear of the campus as school ended, CW affiliate KTLA and ABC affiliate KABC-TV reported. The teen became pinned between two SUVs as a result of the collision, according to the reports. The 'gravely injured' victim and his uninjured father were then transported to a local hospital, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department. The teen later died from his injuries. Footage from the scene, shared by KABC and NBC affiliate KNBC, showed authorities working near multiple SUVs that were very close in proximity to each other. Parents told KABC-TV that the teen's dad was at the school to pick up his son when he witnessed the crash. Five other people came forward with non-life-threatening injuries from the crash, the fire department later stated. Among them are another teen male, an unidentified minor and three adults. "This is a very tragic situation," said LAFD Capt. Adam Vangerpen, CBS affiliate KCBS-TV reported. "This is hard on all the witnesses who witnessed this. There's a lot of kids getting out of school and getting ready for summer." The LAPD and Campbell Hall did not immediately respond to PEOPLE's request for comment. The Mayor's Crisis Response Team responded to the scene of the crash on Wednesday, according to the fire department. LAFD Captain Adam Van Gerpen said the team also responded to the children's hospital where the teen was being treated, KABC-TV reported.

'I know that the Campbell Hall community will be there for all of them in the challenging days and weeks ahead. In the meantime, please respect the family's privacy as they process this overwhelming loss.' Counseling reportedly will be made available at the school's gym between 10 a.m. and 12 p.m. on Thursday.
