Grandson of 'Bonanza' actor Michael Landon fatally struck by Metro bus in Rancho Palos Verdes

The daughter of the late actor Michael Landon, who is best known for his roles in hit TV shows like "Bonanza" and "Little House on the Prairie", is asking for a possible witness in the death of her son to come forward and help in the investigation.

The driver of that bus, according to Shawna Landon, continued driving, only stopping about a mile and a half later to call in a report that his bus had been vandalized. The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department tells Eyewitness News it's investigating and has not ruled out a criminal case, but is still awaiting reports from the coroner's office.

Landon's attorney Robert Barta said the Metro bus was equipped with nine cameras and a black box, but he is still waiting for access to that evidence."There was a passenger on the bus," Barta said. "We're hoping that with this coverage by the news media we can track down this passenger on the bus."

Rest in peace 🕊️ I send my condolences to his family. So young .... He's watching over you know ma'am. ❤️

So sad such a handsome young man my condolences on his passing and hope they find the bus driver. I ride the bus all the time and bus drivers always stop no matter what that’s really strange
