A 33-year-old man died after being struck by two vehicles on Victory Boulevard in Van Nuys on Thursday, November 5, 2026, just before 6 p.m. According to reports, he was first hit by a blue Volvo while crossing between Willis and Cedros avenues. The driver of the Volvo stopped and is cooperating with investigators. A second vehicle, described as a red sedan, then allegedly struck him and did not stop.
ABC7 Los Angeles reported that the man became trapped under the red sedan and was dragged several blocks before coming free in front of Van Nuys High School, where he was pronounced dead at the scene. NBC Los Angeles reported that the second vehicle was possibly a red Cadillac traveling northbound on Cedros Avenue. The LAPD said it is searching for that driver and is not investigating the first collision. The man’s name was not released pending notification of next of kin.
