Fatal Hit-and-Run Traffic Collision 

October 31, 2024 – Los Angeles, CA – Los Angeles Police Department officials report that the West Traffic Division LAPD logodetectives are investigating a fatal hit-and-run traffic collision that left one pedestrian deceased and another injured.

On October 29, 2024, around 5:55 a.m., a vehicle collided with a female pedestrian on Virgil Avenue and 3rd Street. The driver exited the vehicle and approached her to render aid while in the northbound lanes of Virgil Avenue. While rendering aid, an additional vehicle traveling northbound on Virgil Avenue collided into both parties. The vehicle continued to drive northbound on Virgil Avenue, failing to stop, identify themselves, or render aid, as required by law.

The Los Angeles City Fire Department paramedics responded to the scene and provided immediate medical attention to the victims. Both were transported to local hospitals for medical attention where the first pedestrian succumbed to her injuries and was pronounced deceased. Her name is being withheld pending identification and notification of next of kin by the Los Angeles County Coroner’s Office.

At this time, it is not known if alcohol or drugs were a factor in the collision. The investigation is ongoing.

There is no information on the suspect.

On April 15, 2015, the City Council amended the Los Angeles Administrative Code and created a Hit-and-Run Reward Program Trust Fund. A reward of up to $50,000 is available to community members that provide information leading to the offender’s identification, apprehension, and conviction or resolution through a civil compromise.

Motorists are reminded that if they become involved in a collision, they should pull over and stop as soon as it is safe to do so, notify emergency services, and remain at the scene to identify themselves. Motorcyclists are also reminded to obey the rules of the road and ride at a safe speed.

During non-business hours or on weekends, calls should be directed to 1-877-LAPD-24-7 (877-527-3247). Anyone wishing to remain anonymous should call the L.A.
