Police are searching for a hit-and-run suspect who left a woman in critical condition after striking her in South Los Angeles.
The crash happened on Aug. 5, when a pedestrian was crossing Figueroa Street at 82nd Street around 9 p.m., according to the Los Angeles Police Department.
The suspect, who was driving a dark-colored sedan, struck the woman as she was walking, leaving her severely injured.
