SUN VALLEY (CBSLA) — The search continues for suspects in a deadly hit-and-run in Sun Valley that claimed the life of a man.
The incident unfolded at the intersection of Coldwater Canyon and Roscoe Boulevard on Saturday.
The victim, a man in his 50s or 60s, was struck by a driver who ran a red light in a stolen pickup truck, authorities said. After the crash, the suspect got into what appeared to be a getaway vehicle, police said.
