According to authorities, the car drove through a wooden fence, went 50-feet down an embankment and hit a tree before colliding with the Canyonwood Apartments building on the1800 block of Upas Street.
The two people in the car were pulled from the wreckage and transported to the hospital, police said.
One patient sustained back injuries while the driver suffered severe head injuries and a laceration to their hand.
More information on each victim's current condition has not yet been released.
Authorities said drugs or alcohol did not play a role in this crash.
