Anyone with information about the hit-and-run driver was asked to call investigators at 818-644-8022 or through Crime Stoppers at 800-222-TIPS (8477).
A reward of up to $50,000 is available to those who provide information leading to an offender s identification, apprehension and conviction or civil compromise.
