As of Monday morning, candles, flowers and a white spray painted bicycle was placed at a Memorial in honor of the couple. 

One of the notes simply stated, “Together Forever.”  

Accident photos also taken at the scene from journalists show a badly damaged black Ford F-150 that also struck several additional parked cars along Rosecrans Avenue.

“We should have the report completed by Friday, and until then we have no comment on the matter,” Biggs said.

Since the case is ongoing, if you have any information about this case, you’re urged to contact the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department’s Norwalk Station at (562) 863-8711.
