The pedestrian who died in a hit-and-run Valencia crash Friday night has been identified.

Dion Mumphery, 39, a Palmdale resident, was the pedestrian who died in the hit-and-run Valencia crash, according to officials with the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner’s Office.

Around 8:20 p.m. Friday, first responders received reports of a traffic collision involving a pedestrian at the corner of Magic Mountain Parkway and Tourney Road in Valencia, according to Shirley Miller, a spokesperson for the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station.

“Units arrived on scene to find a patient on the floor, pulseless and apneic,” Justin Yang, a spokesperson for the Los Angeles County Fire Department said at the time of the incident. “The vehicle involved fled the scene.

About Louie Diaz

Louie was born and raised in Santa Clarita. At the age of two Louie lost his vision due to a brain tumor. However, Louie doesn't let blindness stop him from doing what ever it is he wants to accomplish. Growing up some of his favorite hobbies were wood working, fishing and riding bikes. Louie graduated from College of the Canyon in December of 2017, with a Broadcast Journalism degree. Growing up Louie has always wanted to be a fire fighter or a police officer, but because of his blindness Louie knew that wouldn't work. Louie has always loved listening to police and fire radio traffic, using a scanner, and he figured if he was going to listen to the scanner so much, he should do something with it.
