A tragic collision occurred in South Los Angeles, resulting in the death of a boy riding a pocket bike. The incident took place around 2 a.m. when the boy, only identified as a minor, was struck by a dark-colored Toyota Corolla, whose driver subsequently fled the scene. Police are searching for the driver, who could face felony charges. Authorities have raised concerns about the illegal use of pocket bikes, which are often operated by unlicensed minors and lack visibility and safety features on public roads.
"They may seem fun, they are dangerous (and illegal) to ride on any public street. The majority of those we have come across..."
"CHP East LA Officers have been seeing an uptick in the use of mini bikes/pocket bikes on the streets and are concerned about the increasing danger."
