    Los Angeles, CA (June 16, 2023) Authorities are on the lookout for a driver and his accomplices involved in a hit-and-run incident in Los Angeles, where they were speeding in a car reportedly stolen and gravely injured a 13-year-old bicyclist.

    The car involved, a black 2014 Kia Optima, was reportedly stolen by four men from the 300 block of West 14th Street. The driver was moving at a high speed when he lost control, veered onto the oncoming lane, and hit the child.

    The suspects were all young men aged between 18 and 20. The driver was seen wearing a black sweater, black trousers, black shoes, and carried a black-and-white backpack. One accomplice was dressed in a gray sweater, black trousers, and white shoes. The second accomplice had shoulder-length black hair and was wearing a white T-shirt, black pants, and shoes. The third accomplice wore a black sweater, black pants, and white shoes. The suspect in the car theft was a man aged between 35 and 40, who was seen wearing a black-and-white hoodie, dark pants, and red shoes.

    Detectives managed to acquire video footage showing the stolen vehicle being deserted by the culprits at 8 a.m. on May 17. The LAPD has since impounded the car.

    Liability In Los Angeles Pedestrian Accidents

    Thousands of pedestrians are killed or seriously injured every year in pedestrian accidents. According to the Centers for Disease Control, “An estimated 137,000 pedestrians were treated in emergency departments for nonfatal crash-related injuries in 2017. Per trip, pedestrians are 1.5 times more likely than passenger vehicle occupants to be killed in a car crash.” There are a number of factors that could lead to a pedestrian collision including:

    • Speeding
    • Drunk driving
    • Driver distraction
    • Inclement weather

    All drivers have a legal obligation to exercise due care in order to avoid hitting pedestrians. The family of any victim that died in a pedestrian collision may have legal recourse through a wrongful death claim. Damages in a civil claim can help cover lost wages, medical bills and pain and suffering. A wrongful death attorney can examine all of the facts of your case and let you know what your legal options are.
