There's been a push for hiring to address a shortage, but more than 30% of air traffic controller trainees failed out of or left the program over the fiscal year ending last September.

The U.S.

Transportation Department Office of Inspector General says it'll look into why that is.

It says in a statement, the training academy is facing considerable challenges, including a shortage of qualified instructors, capacity limitations, an outdated curriculum, and high training failure rates.

The FAA is about 3,500 air traffic controllers short of targeted staffing levels.

The hiring process has been sped up, starting salaries have been increased, and retirement-eligible controllers are being offered bonuses to stick around.

Two men and a woman were pronounced dead at the scene.

They were in the bakery section of a 99 Ranch Market in the Westwood neighborhood of Los Angeles when a 92-year-old woman driving a silver Toyota Prius crashed into the store.

Several people were trapped under the car when first responders got there.

The store faces a busy intersection.

Police say the driver had hit a cyclist about a block away and lost control.

Neither she nor the cyclist were badly injured.

It's being investigated as an unfortunate accident.
