Keisha Saravia, 38, was crossing Main Street in front of her house last month in Broadway-Manchester when she was struck by a white sedan.
The driver did not stop to see if Saravia—then nine months pregnant with her sixth child—was all right, or even to call 911. The car sped off, according to the Los Angeles Police Department, and Saravia and her unborn baby later died at a hospital.
“I don’t even have words,” Saravia’s brother, Ronald Granados, told reporters this month. “Today, [the driver] impacted our family, but in a week or two weeks he could do the same thing to another family.”
Granados was speaking at a news conference, where city officialsannounced a $50,000 reward for information leading to the “arrest and conviction” of the driver, whose identity is still unknown.
Statistics indicate the reward will likely go unclaimed.
