Los Angeles: Detectives from the
Los Angeles Police Department’s Central Traffic Division are asking
for the public’s help in locating the suspect involved in a hit and
run traffic collision.

On May 19, 2019, around 11:25 p.m., the driver of a dark blue Honda
Accord collided with a pedestrian crossing Hollywood Boulevard,
just east of Vermont Avenue. The driver fled the scene without
rendering aid and identifying herself.

Los Angeles Fire Department paramedics responded to the location
and transported the victim to a local hospital with severe
injuries.

The suspect is described as a female White, over 30 years of age,
with dark hair and brown eyes. She stands between 5 feet 2 inches
and 5 feet 4 inches tall and weighs approximately 130-140 pounds.

The City Council amended the Los Angeles Administrative Code and
created a Hit and Run Reward Program Trust Fund in April 2015. A
reward of up to $25,000 is available to community members who
provide information leading to the offender’s identification,
apprehension, and conviction or resolution through a civil
compromise.

Drivers 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.
