Ryo Uchimiya, a chef at Nobu Malibu, was killed when an SUV struck his parked car on Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu early Tuesday morning. A GoFundMe page set up for his wife and children had raised over $55,000 as of Friday to support the family's future after Uchimiya’s death. The 16-year-old driver remains uncharged; authorities found no evidence of intoxication or driving under the influence initially. The SUV involved was leased by Hollywood composer Harry Gregson-Williams, though his connection to the incident is unclear.

Story summary
Ryo Uchimiya, a 51-year-old longtime chef at the famous Nobu Malibu restaurant, was killed early Saturday morning when a teenager driving a Range Rover SUV struck his parked vehicle on Pacific Coast Highway near Carbon Canyon Road in Malibu. The teenager, who was reportedly speeding, veered across the fog line and hit Uchimiya's car while he slept inside, preparing for an early work shift at Nobu. This collision caused a chain reaction that involved three vehicles. Authorities have not filed charges against the teen driver as of Sunday morning, but they are still investigating the incident. Surveillance footage shows the violent impact and subsequent crashes. The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner's Office ruled Uchimiya’s death an accident due to multiple blunt force injuries.
