A 38-year-old pedestrian who was killed in a hit-and-run collision in the Marina del Rey area was identified by county authorities Thursday.
The pedestrian was identified as Calvin Bauman by the Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner.
An older model red Toyota Tacoma was traveling north on Lincoln Boulevard at around 5:35 a.m. Wednesday when it collided with a pedestrian heading east while crossing Lincoln Boulevard between Fiji Way and the Culver Boulevard overpass, according to the Los Angeles Police Department.
Paramedics from the Los Angeles Fire Department pronounced Bauman dead at the scene.
“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,” the police department said in a statement.
