On October 18, the Fresh Prince reboot actor Adrian Holmes was involved in a car accident that resulted in fatal injuries for an unidentified man lying on the street of a freeway in Downtown Los Angeles.
Law enforcement officers reported to TMZ that Holmes was driving southbound on Monday on the 110 freeway, which has heavily trafficked lanes when he hit an unidentified man lying on the ground.
According to the outlet, Holmes lost control of the vehicle and could not avoid hitting the man, and neither was the person driving directly behind him who also made contact and struck the man.
The man’s body was pushed into the lane next to Holmes and struck by a third car.
The John Doe suffered from fatal injuries, and police are currently investigating what could have caused him to have been there at the time of the incident.
