Deadly pedestrian hit and run in Estrella eerily similar to 2010 collision

A tragic hit and run on Tuesday afternoon that left a 13-year-old boy dead has long-time Estrella residents recalling a similar incident that occurred in the same spot 12 years prior.

Dylan Buensuceso, who was an eighth-grader at Estrella Mountain Elementary, was riding his bike home from school when police say he was struck by a white Ford Pickup truck near 182nd and San Gabriel drives. 

Buensuceso died that same evening in the hospital as a result of his injuries. Police are still searching for the suspect.
