Narrative:

Cleared for a visibility approach to runway 25L at lax. At approximately 150' all 3 crew members noticed something on the runway. It was quickly determined to be a man on the runway, now passing through 100' above touchdown zone. He was passing right to left through the centerline at the 500' runway marking. He crouched down as we passed overhead. The captain (who was flying) added power and checked the rate of descent to ensure that we would miss him. The rest of the runway was clear, we touched down approximately 1500' to 2000' from threshold. Clearing the runway we reported it to tower. They sent a security veh to check it out but found nothing. In a later telephone query tower was somewhat unconcerned and said a similar incident occurred 3 weeks ago.
