An investigation was underway after a driver tried to enter Camp Pendleton without authorization Friday, resulting in a fiery crash at the Marine base’s main gate, officials said.

Schrick added that the vehicle crashed into the “final denial” barriers and caught fire. The incident occurred about 6:30 p.m.A video clip and photo captured by witnesses and posted on social media show the front-end of a car smashed into the barriers and engulfed in flames.
Schrick said the “occupants” — she did not say how many passengers were in the vehicle — were taken to a hospital. Their condition was unknown.The Naval Criminal Investigative Service is investigating the incident. Jeff Houston, a spokesperson, said no charges were filed or arrests made as of Monday. Base and NCIS officials declined to provide further information.
“Out of respect for the investigative process, NCIS will not comment further while the investigation continues,” Houston said.
