Police continued Tuesday to look for a reason why a 33-year-old man crashed through a fence at Torrance High School and slammed into the side of a building.
Witnesses said the driver of a 1999 GMC Sonoma ran a stop sign at 220th Street and Martina Avenue shortly before noon on Sunday, smashed through the fence and hit the building.
The driver, Ramon Martinez-Ascencio, 33, of Harbor Gateway, was critically injured and remains in critical condition at County Harbor-UCLA Medical Center near Torrance, Torrance police Officer Dave Crespin said. -- Larry Altman
