Man Killed While Crossing I-5 on Foot
| Monday, Oct 13, 2014

chp_ridealong090314_2[KHTS] – A man was killed while running across the Interstate 5 freeway Sunday night, California Highway Patrol officers said Monday.

The man was running across the I-5 freeway north of Rye Canyon Road, when he collided with the side of a 2013 Nissan, breaking the rear view mirror and shattering the driver’s-side window, according to a CHP report.

The victim has been identified as a 32-year-old Asian man by the Los Angeles County Department of Coroner’s Office officials, but his name has not been released as of Monday, pending the notification of the next of kin, according to Lt. Kelly Yagerlener of the Los Angeles County Department of Coroner’s Office.

The accident occurred at 11:50 p.m. and the man was pronounced dead at the scene at 12:01 a.m. by Los Angeles County Fire Department officials.

Abraham Chavez, 62, of Bakersfield, and Ricardo Chavez, 61, of El Paso, who were in the car suffered no injuries.

Abraham Chavez, who was driving the Nissan, said he was startled by the impact to the side of his car, according to the report.

No arrests were made and the investigation remains ongoing.

    I’d expect this in San Diego, but not in Valencia.

    Why was the 5 north closed about 4 PM today? The sheriffs were walking the freeway right before McBean off ramp.

    All these comments are ignorant sorry to say. What if this was your daughter or son, brother or sister, wow and we wonder why the world is crazy. Those using spanish quotes shame on you. What did your mother teach you. As for traffic. Really, oh sorry it wasn’t exciting for you and another Bronco chase. You all watched that for hours on national t.v. and your phones. It’s really sad that everyone has time to text ridiculous comments. How about a prayer. Here it goes. Lord, I pray you mend these peoples hearts to be soft and understanding of the sadness in this world. Bring peace to the family’s of this person who has lost their life and comfort that no answer can be found but forgiveness that you take him in your kindom. Amen.♥♥♥♥
