Police are searching for a hit-and-run driver who left a victim in critical condition in Canoga Park.
The crash happened on Aug. 3 on Topanga Canyon Boulevard, just north of Parthenia Street at around 1 a.m., according to the Los Angeles Police Department.
Dashcam video of the incident showed the suspect driving a white Acura four-door sedan. As the Acura speeds ahead, it sideswipes a gray BMW sedan, causing the driver to lose control and crash into a pole.
The suspect driver continues speeding away without stopping to check on the victim. Parademics responded to the scene and transported the BMW driver to the hospital with severe injuries.
Surveillance cameras in the area captured the suspect driving away. It appears at least two people were inside the car at the time.
A reward of up to $25,000 is available to anyone who provides information leading to the suspect’s identification and arrest.
“Drivers are reminded that if they become involved in a traffic collision, they should pull over and stop as soon as it is safe, notify emergency services, and remain at the scene as required by law,” said LAPD.
Anyone who may have witnessed the crash or has additional information is asked to call Valley Traffic Division Investigator Reyes at 818-644-8114 or Investigator Santos at 818-644-8024.
The public can also call the LAPD at 1-877-527-3247. Anonymous tips can be provided to L.A. Regional Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or online at lacrimestoppers.org.
