A small gray kitten was thrown out of a car window and into oncoming traffic, where it was hit by another car Monday.
At around 9:25 a.m., the small gray kitten was thrown out of a car on Continental Boulevard and Grand Avenue. No arrests have been reported.
The kitten was treated in El Segundo Animal Hospital, but later died, police said.
Dr. Andrew Streiber, the veterinarian caring for the animal, said the kitten suffered fractures on his growth plates, possible pelvic trauma and what may be damage to his ear.
The El Segundo Police Department does not have any leads or suspects and has been unable to locate surveillance footage of the incident. If anyone has information on this crime, please contact Joe Camagong at (310) 524-2231 or jcamagong@elsegundo.org.
