SAN DIEGO (KGTV) -- Video posted on social media shows a vehicle narrowly missing a pedestrian and slamming into a car in Pacific Beach.

The good news is, Morales says the suspect came forward Tuesday morning, sending him a message on Facebook to confess.

Morales tells 10News the man said his back tire was low, claiming he swerved to avoid hitting the pedestrian, instead hitting the parked car.

A police report has also been made. “This person needs to be held accountable,” Morales said.
