Police are asking the public's help in finding a woman they say was involved in a fatal hit-and-run crash that killed a teen on a bicycle in Bal Harbour Saturday evening.

Miami-Dade Police officials said 24-year-old Luisa Fernanda Ahearn has been identified as a subject in the crash. They did not say how she was involved with the incident.

Authorities are also searching for a 2018 Kia Optima with the license plate IYY-I58, which they say struck a 14-year-old boy on a bicycle at the 10000 block of Collins Avenue just before 6:15 p.m. Saturday.

Detectives say the teen, who they identified as Ethan Gordon, was trying to cross a pedestrian walkway to get on a bridge bike path when he was struck.

Gordon was air rescued to Ryder Trauma Center where he later succumbed to his injuries.

Officials said the Kia should have right front end and windshield damage.

Anyone with information on Ahearn's whereabouts is urged to contact Miami-Dade & The Florida Keys Crime Stoppers at 305-471-8477.
