On July 2, 2023, the life of Samir Patel, a successful entrepreneur and owner of OxyHealth in Santa Fe Springs, California, was tragically cut short when he was struck and killed by a car. The driver responsible for this hit-and-run incident has yet to be identified and captured by the authorities, leaving the Patel family and the community in a state of shock and grief. As the search for the perpetrator continues, Daymond John, well-known host of the popular TV show "Shark Tank," has stepped forward to offer a reward of $20,000 for any information leading to the arrest and conviction of the individual responsible.
Using his social media platform, John reached out to his followers and the public, appealing for their help in solving this case and bringing closure to the Patel family. He emphasized that this is still an ongoing investigation and that any leads or evidence could be crucial in finding the person responsible for taking Samir's life. In a joint effort with the Patel family, John hopes that this reward will encourage people to come forward with any information they may have.
According to a statement from Patel's son, Dr. Mayur Patel, his father had gone out for a walk at 1 A.M. on the night of the incident. It was meant to be a casual stroll, but it turned into a fatal encounter with a reckless driver who ran a red light and fled the scene. The family believes that the vehicle involved was a small silver or gray SUV or hatchback with black window tint, as described by the Whittier police.
With John's involvement, the Patel family is hopeful that justice will be served and the responsible party will be brought to justice. They are grateful for the support and assistance from John and the community in their quest for answers. Mayur expressed that if he had a friend who had committed such a crime, he would urge them to do the right thing and turn themselves in.
The Whittier police are urging anyone with information to come forward and assist in the investigation. Officer Medina can be contacted at 567-9259 or
