SANTA ANA (CBSLA) — A man who was apparently out for a jog was killed by a hit-and-run driver in Santa Ana.
Investigators were on the scene of the fatal crash on South Raitt Street, near West Street Anne Place, for hours after the crash, which happened at about 11 p.m. Monday.
Officers were called to the scene on the report of a person down, and found the man. He was pronounced dead at the scene and he has not been identified.
The man's body was found in the street, and it's not clear if he was trying to cross the street. The man's identity was not released, but police say he appears to be in his 20s and was wearing headphones and running shoes.
"The car stopped for a second or two, and then fled the scene," Santa Ana police Sgt. Kanan Blake said.
Police say security video from a nearby home suggest the man was struck by a white four-door sedan that left turned around, came back, and drove off again.
