Hit-and-Run Driver Crashes into Parked Food Truck NR26006kt

Los Angeles: Detectives from the Los Angeles Police Department’s West Traffic Division are seeking the public’s help in identifying the driver of a vehicle that crashed into a parked food truck, injuring a 50-year-old woman.

On October 4, 2025, around 12:55 p.m., a white Nissan Pathfinder was traveling westbound on Pico Boulevard near Hayworth Avenue when it rear-ended a parked food truck. The impact caused one of the occupants of the food truck to be ejected onto the roadway. The driver of Nissan Pathfinder, described only as a female, fled the scene on foot, without identifying themselves or rendering aid as required by law.

The Los Angeles Fire Department responded to the scene and transported the victim to a local hospital in stable condition.

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.

On April 15, 2015, the City Council amended the Los Angeles Administrative Code and created a Hit-and-Run Reward Program Trust Fund. A reward of up to $25,000 is available to community members that provide information leading to the offender’s identification, apprehension, and conviction or resolution through a civil compromise.
