Man suspected in deadly L.A. street race surrenders
LOS ANGELES -- A 21-year-old man suspected in a deadly street race in the Chatsworth area on Thursday has turned himself into police.
Henry Michael Gevorgyan was being booked at a LAPD station Saturday evening, a department spokesperson told CBS Los Angeles.
Two men were killed and at least one other was seriously injured after being struck by a vehicle at Plummer Street and Canoga Avenue around 2:15 a.m. Thursday.
Police believe two cars were street racing when the driver of a Mustang lost control and ran into a crowd.
One of the victims was killed at the scene. The other died at a hospital.
A third man also suffered serious injuries.
Both drivers fled the scene, police said.
At a news conference Thursday, officials identified Gevorgyan as the Mustang driver.
The search continues for the second driver.
