HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif. � A teenage driver was in custody Wednesday on suspicion of intentionally striking three bicyclists, killing one, in a Southern California beach city last weekend, police said.
In the first hit-and-run collision, a bicyclist said a black Toyota
sideswiped him around 10:30 p.m Sunday night in Huntington Beach, leaving
him with minor injuries, said Jessica Cuchilla, a police spokesperson.
Another cyclist said he was aggressively sideswiped by a black Toyota
about 15 minutes later just up the road from the first collision, police
said. And 15 minutes after that, a black Toyota sedan struck 70-year-old
Steven Gonzales, who was alive when paramedics showed up but died at the
scene.
On Tuesday, officers discovered the suspect�s vehicle in Huntington Beach, leading them to identify the teen as a suspect, Cuchilla said. The teen,
who was not identified, was arrested around 9 p.m. His age was not given.
Investigators believe the crashes were all intentional. Police did not
disclose a possible motive.
The boy remained in custody Wednesday at Orange County Juvenile Hall, the Orange County Register reported.
