Around 7 a.m. on Sunday, several cars were driving recklessly along Las Vegas' Hollywood Blvd toward Sahara Blvd, witnesses told police, according to KSNV News 3. The witnesses said that a passenger in a minivan was hanging halfway out of the car, attempting to strike people on the sidewalk.
The passenger missed two pedestrians, but then struck a middle-aged woman riding in the bicycle lane further down the road, according to KSNV.
"While driving down Hollywood Boulevard, they pulled along-side a female bicyclist and the passenger leaned out of the vehicle window and pushed her to the ground," a press release from the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department obtained by PEOPLE stated. "At the same time, the passenger fell out of the moving vehicle and struck a light pole."
Both were declared dead on the scene.
On Monday, police identified the driver as Rodrigo Cruz, 22, who "fled the scene before officers arrived and was later apprehended."

Instant Karma in the bicycle of life...
Poor lady. How awful.
A stupider, more dangerous version of the knockout game, perhaps?
Kamakasi suicide run?
Methinks drugs and/or drink were involved, compounded by incredible natural stupidity.
And perhaps Covid-19.
There’s some sick friggin’ people out there.
Bring back public hangings.
Criminals like this are not complicated people. It wouldn’t take more than a few to end 95% of such senseless violence.
People are losing their minds. Even worse, their souls.
I dont understand how the lady on the bike died? what did they hit her with?
It is wrong to call these incidents “senseless deaths.”
Unfortunately, they DO make sense. You shake up a toxic mixture of boredom, hate, no earned self-respect, and complete amorality absent Christian-Judeo values - this is completely predictable and rationally understandable. Especially if there is unlikely to be any legal repercussions.
It’s like gang shootings and revenge in Chicago. They make perfect sense once you analyze them.
Feel bad for that woman. Prayers for her family.
For the scumbag who killed her and then got killed? May he suffer in Hell.
Hopefully the driver gets a long prison sentence.
Well stated.
LVMPD: Driver arrested in Sunday homicide that left woman, suspect dead
Recently sold my carbon fiber road bike And switched to a commuter type to ride the sidewalk because I no longer felt safe in the bike lane. Seen too many bike lane signs in the grass that had been run over (assumingly by accident). This deliberate act is a terrible waste of life.
Seems mass times velocity =kinetic energy from both body and bicycle being in motion which then translates into impact upon suddenly hitting the ground, curb, light pile or other fixed object, resulting in fatal injury.
One deserved it, the other was murdered.
Hmm... is this a new knock out game?
There is more to this story of randomness...
Gang initiation??
Yep. My thought too.
This is part of a movement the media is supressing so they come out with a narrative out first.
If gypsies think the Marxist will respect their caravan borders and territoriality, I got news for them
Trump needs to run a campaign of gypsies for Trump.
