UPDATE: Amanda Steiner, sister of the man killed in the hit and run released the following statement:
My brother, Philip White, was the victim of a hit-and-run accident on Sunday, 9/21 in Oceanside. He was riding a bike and killed by a driver who left the scene. Philip’s name has just been released to the media.

My family is devastated by our loss. We loved our Philip so very much and are shocked by his death. We are not yet prepared to make a statement, but I am wondering if you might be able to help share the information on our fundraising webpage http://www.gofundme.com/philipwhite with organizations and individuals who may be able to help us meet the unexpected costs associated with Philip’s death or who may otherwise be able to provide support as we cope with this sudden tragedy.
