With 2022 being the deadliest year for pedestrians in L.A.'s history, the LAPD has sent a message to motorists as they announced the arrest of suspect who hit a 13-year-old and then fled the scene.
Police are sharing more details about how they were able to track down the motorcyclist who hit a 13-year-old in Boyle Heights and then fled, and they have a message for anyone trying to escape the consequences of their actions by running from the scene.
With the help of tips, surveillance video and assigning several detectives to the case, the LAPD says they were able to identify and locate Majano, who hit Mora as he was walking in a crosswalk on Whittier Boulevard. Mora is in the eighth grade and played basketball with the hopes of one day playing for the Lakers. He was walking to get a haircut at around 3:30 p.m. on March 30 when his life was turned upside down.
