The accident occurred around 10 p.m. Thursday while the victim was walking northbound at a marked crosswalk, just east of Van Ness Avenue, according to the Los Angeles Police Department.

Police said the driver was traveling westbound on Franklin Avenue and collided with the victim, which caused him to collide with the roadway.

The victim was taken to a hospital, where he died shortly afterward.

No other injuries were reported, and a suspect description was not immediately available.

Authorities urged anyone with information about the accident to call LAPD West Traffic Detectives at 213-473-0234.
