Allen Yangkaou Lee Obituary – The suspect, who was driving a beige Honda Civic, did not stop to help and fled the scene. The victim was identified as Allen Yangkaou Lee, 67, according to the Irvine Police Department. The crash happened on May 9 as Allen was driving northbound on Culver Drive towards Trabuco Road in Irvine at around 4:30 p.m.
As he passed an intersection, the suspect jutted out and made a right turn against a red light. The sudden movement of the suspect’s car forced Allen to swerve so he would avoid crashing into the suspect. The maneuver caused Allen to lose control of his car, causing a rollover crash.
His vehicle collided with a center median, a tree and a light pole before landing on its roof. Paramedics rushed Allen to a local hospital where he died from his injuries on May 13. His loved ones are devastated as they remember the beloved father and grandfather.
