Pedestrian Killed in Hit-and-Run Crash
HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif. (Sept. 11, 2023) – A fatal hit-and-run pedestrian accident happened Sunday night at Springdale Street and Heil Avenue in Huntington Beach.
A suspect in an unknown vehicle reportedly struck the victim riding a bicycle around 10:45 p.m. on Sept. 10th, according to the Huntington Beach Police Department.
