BC couple seriously injured in hit-and-run in California facing huge medical bills

A B.C. couple is now in hospital in San Diego, Calif. battling serious injuries following a hit-and-run on Friday, April 7.

Kevin Gulbranson and his partner, Dayae Choi, had parked their car on Greene Street. They were then hit by a car driving in the opposite direction. The driver of that car did not stop at the scene.

“They don’t remember very much,” Allison Gulbranson, Kevin’s older sister, told Global News.

“All they do remember is that they were on the ground... And they were both seriously injured.”

Choi has a serious lower leg injury. She has now had two surgeries to treat damaged and missing muscle, fat and skin and she will need skin graft surgery as well. Kevin, however, is in critical condition and is currently in the intensive care unit in a medically induced coma.

San Diego County Crime Stoppers and investigators from the San Diego Police Department’s Traffic Division are investigating and said the vehicle involved appears to be a black, older model Lexus sedan, possibly an LS400, with damage to its passenger side including missing the passenger side mirror and windshield wiper.
