Authorities Wednesday sought the public’s help to find the hit-and-run motorist responsible for critically injuring a pedestrian in Pacoima.
Paramedics sent to Glenoaks Boulevard north of Montford Street about 6:15 p.m. Tuesday took the injured man, in his late 60s, to a hospital, the Los Angeles Police Department reported.
“A light-colored, possibly silver sedan was traveling northbound Glenoaks Boulevard … at a high rate of speed when it veered to the right, crossed over the bicycle lane, and collided with a pedestrian,” police said in a statement.
“The victim was standing next to the driver’s door of his legally parked vehicle when he was struck,” police said.
A standing reward of up to $25,000 has been offered by the city of Los Angeles for information that helps solve a non-fatal hit-and-run.
