Hit-and-Run Pedestrian Crash in Los Angeles

 
LOS ANGELES, CA (August 11, 20202)—A man sustained injuries following Monday’s hit-and-run pedestrian accident on York Boulevard at Munson Avenue.
 
According to the Los Angeles Police Department, the incident unfolded around 10 p.m. as the 65-year-old man tried walking in an unmarked crosswalk at the intersection.
 
Before reaching the curb of the sidewalk, a westbound traveling motorcyclist struck the pedestrian, knocking him onto the ground. Unfortunately, the motorcyclist did not stop to help the man.
 
However, bystanders tended to the injured pedestrian who was subsequently struck by a second car. Reports say that the second driver did not stop at the scene, as well.
 
When paramedics arrived moments later, they ushered the pedestrian to a hospital with non-life-threatening severe injuries.
 
Detectives now need the help of witnesses to determine the whereabouts and identities of the drivers involved.
 
With the help of a video captured, they believe the motorcyclist was wearing a green helmet riding a green bike; however, there is no information on the second driver.
 
Those looking to help detectives should call Detective Juan Campos at 213-833-3713, or the central traffic division watch commander at 213-486-3713.
