A man was struck three times in consecutive collisions on Pacific Coast Highway in Long Beach early Sunday morning, police say. Two were hit-and-runs. The one driver who did stop to call for help saw another motorist strike the man and speed away. The pedestrian was pronounced dead at the scene, the Long Beach Police Department said. The first driver hit the victim while he was walking outside of a marked crosswalk near the intersection of PCH and Molino Avenue.
Officers with the Long Beach Police Department responded to the crash at 2:26 a.m. Sunday morning. While waiting for officers to arrive, the Kia driver said, he saw a truck hit the victim for a third time and drag him a short distance before fleeing the scene, according to Long Beach police. No other information was made available about the fleeing vehicles, and no arrests have been made. Anyone with information regarding the collisions is asked to contact Det. Ashley Van Holland at 570-5130.
