While off duty, Detective Leist was struck and killed by a vehicle in Los Angeles, CA on January 12, 2020. She had just finished rendering aid to an elderly pedestrian who had fallen in a crosswalk while crossing a major intersection. Detective Leist was crossing back through the intersection to return to her vehicle when a vehicle accidentally struck her in the street.
Detective Leist was seriously injured by the accident and was pronounced dead at the hospital later that morning. Detective Leist had served with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department for 12 years. She is survived by her two sons.
