TikToker and hospital technician, Leonardo Gil, has died following a hit and run in Florida.

He died aged 34.

Gil, who had over 100, 000 followers was leaving his shift at Hialeah Hospital on Tuesday when the car accident happened.

He was riding home on his motorcycle at around 9:30 pm local time when he was hit by an SUV, the car was taking a left turn at the intersection of East 8th Avenue and 21st Street in Hialeah, Metro UK reports.

A GoFundMe set up to cover funeral and memorial costs, has now reached over $40,000 (£29,800).

7News Miami reports that Gil’s aunt, Katiuska Fernandez, said that her nephew was lying on the ground until a passerby found him and called the emergency services.

The hospital worker was then taken to Jackson Memorial Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

The family’s fundraiser says they were ‘not prepared for the loss of this loving, kind, selfless young man.’

‘He leaves behind a big, loving, united family, including his young son,’ they shared.

Police confirmed that Gil was travelling south when the vehicle turned in front of him, with NBC Miami reporting that the driver did not give Gil ‘an opportunity to even attempt to stop.’

Surveillance footage of the collision shows the offending vehicle turned just three seconds before the motorcyclist entered the intersection.
