While CHP's investigation is continuing, investigators said they're not actively looking for any hit-and-run suspects.Authorities said Jacob Fuerte was in week 10 of a 20-week training program to become a firefighter, adding that Fuerte's father is a 17-year veteran of the LAFD.Authorities said Wednesday the crash on the 101 Freeway that killed a Los Angeles Fire Department recruit was not believed to have been a criminal hit-and-run.
Two people who were in a 2016 Toyota that was apparently involved in the second collision were treated at a hospital for minor injuries, the CHP reported. During Tuesday's Los Angeles City Council meeting, Councilwoman Monica Rodriguez introduced a motion that would establish a $50,000 reward for information leading to the identification and arrest of the individual responsible for Fuerte's death. That motion was introduced prior to the CHP's revelation Wednesday that they are not seeking any hit-and-run suspects.
City Council President Paul Krekorian called for a moment of silence in Fuerte's memory before Bass began her speech.
