The music world was shaken this morning when news of Justin Bieber’s serious car accident spread at the speed of light.
According to the initial report from the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD), the incident occurred at 5:42 a.m. on Mulholland Drive, the city’s most dangerous mountain pass. The silver Bugatti Chiron, registered under the name of Justin Bieber, collided head-on with a cargo truck before exploding violently.
💥 The tragic scene in the heart of Los Angeles
Black smoke billowed into the sky, the smell of gasoline and burning metal filled the air. Dozens of fire trucks and police rushed to the scene within 10 minutes.
A witness named Riley Johnson, 26, told KTLA News:
“I was driving just a few hundred meters away. There was a huge explosion, smoke covered the entire slope. When I got closer, the front of the Bugatti was deformed, flames were more than 5 meters high.”
Another driver’s dashcam captured the horrific scene: Justin’s Bugatti lost control on a curve, skidded sideways, and crashed head-on into a truck changing lanes, causing a bomb-like explosion.
The fire spread so quickly that police were unable to get into the cabin for the first 15 minutes. When the fire was brought under control, they were left with only a charred metal frame and a piece of scorched leather seat.
⚡ Police and witnesses were shocked
An LAPD spokesman confirmed in a brief press conference:
“We found a body in the cabin behind the wheel, we haven’t been able to identify it yet, but all the documents and belongings matched the singer Justin Bieber.”
Another witness, a delivery man nearby, said in tears:
“We heard music playing from the car speakers before the explosion. Maybe he was listening to his own song. After the collision, I only saw fire and smoke, no one could get close.”
Multiple witnesses reported seeing a black SUV following the Bugatti just before the crash — police are now searching for the suspect vehicle to investigate a possible pursuit or illegal racing.
🚑 Life-and-death moments
6:10 a.m. — paramedics arrive. Despite the flames still blazing, they risk their lives to rush into the cabin. A rescue worker tells TMZ:
“We found a severely burned, unresponsive body, but we put an oxygen mask on it and performed chest compressions for eight minutes straight.”
An Air Rescue 3 helicopter lands on the highway, taking the victim to Cedars-Sinai Hospital, which has treated a number of Hollywood stars. Police cordon off the entire area, smoke and metal debris cover the road.
Fans gather outside the hospital, many in tears, holding up signs that read “Stay Strong Justin 💔”.
🏥 ICU lights up – doctors fight every second
According to Cedars-Sinai insiders, the victim was rushed to the emergency room at 6:38 a.m. in cardiac arrest, with third-degree burns over 80 percent of his body, and multiple internal injuries.
Top cardiologists and plastic surgeons were called in. A source revealed:
“They had to shock him five times to get his heart beating again. The monitor was flashing red, the ventilator was ringing throughout the room. The whole medical team was shaking because they knew who they were saving.”
A nurse burst into tears when she saw the word “Purpose” tattoo on the patient’s wrist, confirming that it matched Justin Bieber’s location.
