Police are looking for the driver responsible for a deadly hit-and-run crash that claimed the life of a father of three in Redland.
Miami-Dade Police confirmed to NBC6 that the vehicle involved in the crash first slammed into a building along 232th Street and 194th Avenue before crashing into a person on a scooter on 208th Street and 194th Avenue and taking off.
Family members identified the man on the scooter as 46-year-old Alexis Muñoz of Cuba.
According to the victim’s cousin, Yaicel Santana, Muñoz and his wife worked for Costa Farms. On Monday morning, he was riding his scooter with her and was dropping her off at work.
“I’m feeling a profound sadness for what has happened to him,” Santana told NBC6. “We’re on in shock. It’s extremely difficult.”
The father of three had recently moved to the U.S. from Cuba just six months ago, Santana said.
