A hit-and-run driver struck and killed a pedestrian in Carson Saturday night, said sheriff’s officials.
The accident happened near the intersection of Main and Jay Streets at 9:55 p.m. The injured man died at the scene.
“Five minutes after he left I heard a loud bang,” said Eien Bange, a clerk at La Liquor Store at 22116 Main Street. “About 15 minutes later some police came … and they took a look at my video and identified him,” said Bange.
The store clerk also said the victim told him he was laid-off last week from a job he had worked for 30 years.
Sheriff’s detectives are questioning witnesses to the accident to try and develop a description of the suspects’ vehicle.
Anyone with any information about this incident should contact the Carson Sheriff’s Station at (310) 830-1123.
