According to police, he was walking home when he was hit by a vehicle and thrown into the bushes. The driver of the vehicle has yet to be identified.

In honor of his memory, producers of “The Bay” have released a Director’s Cut of Chapter 11: Part 1, which can be streamed beginning today.
“Bay” creator Gregori J. Martin said in an interview with KABC on Friday, “David is great, I work with David, and, you know, he is amazing, right now, I think it is just about finding out information, we don’t have any information at all, and we just need to get to the bottom of this.” He noted, “We need to find out who did this, who left him in the bushes.”
