MORENO VALLEY (CBSLA) — Disturbing video has emerged of a pickup truck driver plowing into a group of people outside a restaurant in Moreno Valley.
At least two adult males were struck — one died at a nearby hospital, the other was left in serious condition.
Police said the driver of the Ford F-150 is still on the run.
Friday evening, friends and family of the victims placed flowers and candles at the site of the accident. They asked not to be interviewed on camera.
CBS2/KCAL9’s Stacey Butler respected their privacy and did not speak to people who knew the loved ones on camera.
