Angus Cloud had allegedly fled off the scene of the accident

As per TMZ, a witness familiar with the victims of Toyota told the publication that after the incident, they went to look for Angus Cloud in the parking lot where he and his friend went, but by that time, they had already left the scene.

Although officers concerned with the case have not exclusively stated Cloud's involvement, he is under suspicion.

He is currently being sought out for questioning to learn more about the incident.

In California, a hit-and-run is a felony and could result in up to six months of jail time for the same.

Angus Cloud rose to fame with his role in Euphoria as a drug dealer and Rue's (played by Zendaya) friend Fezco. He had no on-screen appearances before that and was chosen for the drama series after being spotted on a Manhattan street in 2018.

Since then, he has starred in several music videos, including the late Juice WRLD's hit song, Cigarettes.

He will soon be seen in Freaky Tales, Your Lucky Day, and The Line, according to his IMDb.
