LOS ANGELES—Legislators were urged April 13 to strengthen traffic safety laws in the wake of a hit-and-run motorcycle crash in Boyle Heights that left a 13-year-old boy with a severed leg and a Banning man facing probable criminal charges.
The suspect, 29-year-old Erwin Majano of Banning, was taken into custody early Tuesday morning in connection with the March 30 hit-and-run on Whittier Boulevard that severely injured Joshua Mora, according to the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD).
