Oscar Ernesto Guardado, 42, was on his way home the night of October 27 when he was struck at the corner of Normandie Avenue and W 23rd Street, according to investigators.
Police said the suspect took off without helping and Guardado was pronounced dead at the scene.
"He was knocked off his bicycle and was in the street when he was seen by LAFD personnel," said Los Angeles Police Sgt. Gabriel Nily during a news conference on Monday.
A detailed description of the suspect's vehicle was not available but Nily said the car was a black or dark-colored 4-door sedan. The exact make and model is unknown.
Guardado's eldest daughter also spoke out during Monday's news conference and said she and her siblings simply want justice.
"It does hurt us three kids knowing that we don't have our father to see us graduate or anything like that," she said. "He wasn't the perfect dad, but he was the best dad to us. He tried his to provide everything for us three kids on his own and I'm just looking for justice."
