Los Angeles police said the motorcycle rider was cut off by a black BMW, which then caused a chain-reaction crash. The motorcyclist slammed straight into the back of a parked van, and the BMW driver fled the scene, police said.

The motorcyclist suffered a severe leg injury and was transported to an area hospital in grave condition, according to authorities from the LAPD.
