A man was arrested in San Rafael following a hit-and-run collision that killed a scooter rider in San Francisco late last month, police said Friday.
Daniel Llama was taken into custody Thursday in connection with the collision reported Oct. 24 shortly after 5 a.m. in the area of Franklin and Pine streets, according to San Francisco police.
The man who was struck while riding the scooter was taken to a hospital but succumbed to his injuries there. His name was not immediately released.
Investigators determined that a vehicle had struck the man and eventually identified the suspect vehicle and located it in San Rafael. Officers arrested Llama and had the vehicle towed back to San Francisco for the collision investigation, police said.
Llama was booked into jail on suspicion of vehicular manslaughter and hit-and-run resulting in death, and he remained in custody as of Friday afternoon, according to jail booking logs.
SFPD are asking anyone with information about the case to call their tip line at 415-575-4444 or to send a tip by text message to TIP411 with SFPD at the start of the message.
