A cyclist from Colombia, aged 46, was tragically killed in Los Angeles on Wednesday morning after being struck by a driver who was attempting to flee the scene.

The incident occurred around 6:10 a.m. when officers responded to a report from a woman who had been a victim of a burglary the previous night and was tracking her stolen electronic device.

The suspect’s vehicle, a gold Chevrolet Suburban, was located parked in front of an apartment building on East 48th Street and South Central Avenue.
