This individual, now deceased, was tragically struck by three different vehicles in downtown Los Angeles. The relentless impact knocked him to the ground repeatedly, ultimately leading to his demise at the scene. Adding to the gravity of the situation, none of the drivers involved in these three vehicles bothered to stop and assist the man in his desperate struggle for survival and safety.
From NBC News:
He was crossing San Fernando Road mid-block when a light-colored pickup truck traveling north in the southbound lanes hit him, knocking him to the ground, police said.
"He was breathing,” business owner Amgad Khalil, who saw the collision from his security camera video, told NBC Los Angeles. “He was trying to get up."
But the man was then struck by a large SUV that was also driving the wrong way, the department said.
The force of the second hit threw the pedestrian onto the road’s southbound lanes, where a midsize SUV ran over him, police said.
The pedestrian was pronounced dead at the scene, police said. No suspects have been publicly identified, and a police spokesperson said Tuesday that there were no updates.
"Nobody deserves this — nobody,” Khalil said. “I wouldn’t wish that on my enemy.”
