LAFD search-and-rescue crews responded shortly before 8 a.m. to the 7200 block of North Laurel Canyon Boulevard, according to Margaret Stewart, a spokeswoman for the agency.
"Firefighters quickly extricated the patient from under the vehicle but sadly, was beyond help and determined dead on scene," Stewart said in a statement. The victim's identity was not immediately disclosed.
The California Occupational Safety and Health Administration was notified of the incident, in accordance with protocol, the LAFD said.
