Police probe crashes linked to commerce sec.
Police say U.S. Commerce Secretary John Bryson has been cited for felony hit-and-run following two Los Angeles area accidents that left him injured and unconscious.
They said early Monday that the 68-year-old Bryson was treated at a hospital for non-life-threatening injuries following the crashes around 5 p.m. PDT Saturday.
The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s department and the San Gabriel Police Department say he was driving alone on a major street in San Gabriel when he allegedly struck the rear end of a vehicle, then left the scene after speaking briefly with the occupants.
