A search is underway for a hit-and-run driver who struck and killed a 91-year-old Holocaust survivor in Valley Village, California.

Gennady Bolotsky was attempting to cross Magnolia Boulevard. He was walking his beloved dog Leelah, who was his companion after his wife of more than 50 years passed away.

Los Angeles Police Department Valley Traffic Division detectives are now trying to track down a truck and are asking the public’s help in finding it. It’s a white Toyota Tundra-type truck with a camper shell.

“This parasite of the society shouldn’t be in this society, shouldn’t be on the streets,” Michael Bolotsky said. “So please help us to put him where he belongs.”

The city of L.A. is offering up to a $50,000 reward for information leading to the suspect.
