Police are searching for a hit-and-run driver who they say hit and killed a 100-year-old man in a popular Oakland pedestrian area.
The elderly man’s cane was still on the edge of the crosswalk at the intersection and Larios said it pains him to think about how it happened and how fast the car must have been going.
Oakland police said the hit-and-run driver was in a white or tan Mini Cooper that sped away, but said Monday they’re unable to give more details or share video or images.
