Cyclist Fatally Struck in South LA Hit-and-Run Incident [Los Angeles, CA]

Los Angeles, CA (June 2nd, 2025)- Cyclist Fatally Struck in South LA Hit-and-Run Incident late Sunday night when a man on a bicycle was killed in a hit-and-run crash in the Broadway-Manchester area of South Los Angeles. The collision took place at approximately 11:10 p.m. at the intersection of Century Boulevard and San Pedro Street, according to the Los Angeles Police Department’s Operations Center. Both the bicycle and the unidentified vehicle were traveling westward on Century Boulevard when the car reportedly struck the bicyclist and continued without stopping.

First responders arrived within minutes of the initial 911 call. The bicyclist, believed to be a man in his mid-30s, was found unresponsive near the center of the roadway. Despite lifesaving attempts by paramedics, he was pronounced dead at the scene. His identity remains undisclosed pending notification of next of kin. Witnesses described a chaotic scene: the victim’s bicycle was mangled and laid out across the street, while a white police canopy marked the location where the investigation unfolded.

At this time, law enforcement has no detailed description of the suspect vehicle or its driver. Authorities continue to review surveillance footage from nearby businesses and traffic cameras in hopes of identifying the fleeing motorist. Investigators urge anyone with information to contact the Los Angeles Police Department immediately. Though the cause of the collision is still under review, roadway conditions appeared clear, and there were no reported weather issues that might have contributed to the crash.
