Hit & Run Pedestrian, Compton Police at Scene
A woman crossing Rosecrans Avenue with her boyfriend is struck by a white pickup truck that speeds away. She is seriously injured and taken to Martin Luther King Jr. Hospital. Paramedics load her into an American Medical Response (AMR) ambulance as Compton Police, Sheriff’s deputies and the California Highway Patrol (CHP) investigate and question witnesses. Compton PD footage is rare: the department was disbanded in 2000.
