(01-21) 20:10 PST Hawthorne, Calif. (AP) --
A bizarre series of events unfolded in Hawthorne after a deadly hit-and-run that ended with a man beaten by a mob.
Hawthorne police Lt. Gary Tomatoni said in a statement Friday that a minivan hit a man Wednesday night as he crossed Crenshaw Boulevard, and the driver fled the scene. The man was then run over by a second car, whose driver also failed to stop.
One of several people who ran to help the man was hit by a car herself.
Tomatoni says that driver stopped to help, but a mob of bystanders attacked him, beat him and stole his cell phone.
The first hit-and-run victim died at a hospital, the others are expected to be fine.
One man from the mob was arrested.
