The Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center is asking for the public’s help in identifying a John Doe. The unidentified male patient was taken by ambulance to the Westwood hospital Friday, Sept. 26, after being struck by a car that evening at approximately 9:22. The victim arrived at the hospital by 10 p.m. with no identification with critical injuries and remains unconscious. He is described as approximately 5 feet 10 inches tall, weighing around 205 pounds, and appears to be in his mid-to-late 30s. He has a tanned complexion, brown eyes, dark brown hair, a long goatee, and a full mustache. He has no visible tattoos but does have light-colored moles near his nose and on his chest.
The unidentified man was reportedly walking across Pacific Coast Highway without a crosswalk in the area between Carbon Canyon and the La Costa Beach Club in an area clearly marked as a 25 mph speed limit. The Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department said a male juvenile driver under the age of 18 was behind the wheel at the time of the incident. LASD said speeding does not appear to be an issue in this case. No charges have been filed against the driver.
Anyone with information that may help identify the hospitalized individual is urged to contact Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center at (310) 267-9752.
Any witnesses are urged to call the Malibu Lost Hills Sheriff’s Station at (818) 978-1808
