    Exposition Park, CA (November 25, 2024) 16-year-old Jonathan Flores was tragically killed in a potential road-rage incident involving a vehicle and a group of bicyclists.

    Shortly before 4:30 p.m., Flores was riding his bike with about 40 other people south on Figueroa Street, north of MLK Jr. Boulevard. After an altercation with a motorist, the bicyclists then veered off the road and into a parking lot near BMO stadium.

    According to CBS News, fellow bicyclists said that Flores did nothing wrong. An altercation involving other bicyclists led up to the incident.

    City News Service reported that some cyclists were involved in a verbal fight with a motorist in a blue BMW that subsequently followed the group into the lot. When Flores turned into the BMO lot, he was struck by a separate black Honda sedan. The driver of that vehicle was later arrested. The BMW was also reportedly seized as evidence.
