After Munoz was struck, the driver got out of the F-250 and got into a small red pickup truck and fled the scene.
Family members said Munoz and his wife worked for Costa Farms, and that he was riding his scooter after he'd dropped her off for work.
The father of three had recently moved to the U.S. from Cuba just six months ago, family said.
