Pedestrian Hit-and-Run Suspect at Large

Feb 09,2017

Police are investigating a pedestrian hit-and-run in Adelanto that sent a man to the hospital last week. The collision happened in the 18200 block of Bellflower Street around 7:24 p.m. on Wednesday, February 1. According to the Victor Valley Sheriff’s Station, a vehicle struck a 46-year-old man on the roadway. The driver then fled the scene.

Paramedics transported the pedestrian, who was awake and breathing, to Loma Linda University Medical Center. His status is unknown.

The driver also struck power pole at some point, prompting a request to Southern California Edison. It is unclear whether anyone’s power was affected. Police closed off Bellflower Street between Brockman Avenue and Sage Street to investigate the crash.
