Police are looking for a female driver who crashed into a jogger near the entrance of Loyola Marymount University on Thursday. The crash happened around 4:15 a.m. at Lincoln Boulevard and LMU Drive. Police say the driver of a light-colored older-model Buick struck a light pole before hitting the jogger, a man in his 60s who is believed to be an area resident. According to police, the jogger rolled on the hood of the car and smashed into the windshield. He was transported to the hospital in critical condition. Police say the driver bailed out of the car on foot. She was seen wearing a white top and talking on a cellphone as she walked northbound on Lincoln Boulevard. Police believe she may have been picked up by a friend. The car has apparently been traced back to another person outside of the area. Sgt. Stephanie Krajchir with the LAPD West Traffic Division says it is unclear if drugs or alcohol were a factor. Lincoln Boulevard from Bluff Drive to LMU Drive was shut down. The southbound lanes toward Los Angeles International Airport were expected to be closed for about two hours.
