According to an FHP crash report, the man was crossing Pleasant Hill Road from an unknown direction — midblock and outside of a marked crosswalk — when he was struck by the front left of a vehicle that then left the scene.

Troopers are now looking for what could be a gray 2014-19 Volkswagen Passat that would likely have front and left side damage, as well as damage to the driver side mirror and possibly to its windshield.
