GoFundMe page set up for Santa Ana man killed in hit-and-run crash

A family is mourning the loss of their cousin after they say he was killed in a hit-and-run crash.

According to a GoFundMe and local media reports, Santa Ana man Ralph Marin Hernandez was walking across Bristol Street near Park Lane early morning Sunday when he was hit and killed.

Here are the details from the GoFundMe page:

Hello, I’m Cristina. My cousin, Ralph Marín Hernández, died on Sunday, October 20, 2024, at the age of 31, after being hit by two cars. The first vehicle fled, and unfortunately, my cousin died instantly. His mother, my aunt, is in Mexico and cannot travel to the United States.

On this occasion, the Hernández family asks for the help of family, friends and the community of Santa Ana to cover the expenses of his funeral services and transportation to Mexico.

We ask for your help but most of all that you keep my cousin Ralph Marin Hernandez and my family in your prayers during these difficult times.
