A Bell Gardens family is mourning the loss of their beloved matriarch who was struck and killed by a hit-and-run driver while crossing the street.
A Bell Gardens family is mourning after their beloved matriarch was struck and killed by a hit-and-run driver last week. It happened on Thursday at around 7:30 p.m. as she crossed Gage Avenue after buying food from a taco stand, according to Bell Gardens Police Department. Family of 62-year-old Janet Young gathered near the area where the crash happened on Sunday to hold a memorial on the street they say she must have crossed hundreds of times.
'Moreno is among the many that are pleading with the driver or anyone who has more information to come forward and contact police. 'Just turn yourself in, please. There's people here hurting,' said Young's son, Joseph. Police say that they're currently searching for a dark-colored sedan that was driving eastbound when they struck Young, continuing to drive instead of stopping to offer help.
