I’d expect this in San Diego, but not in Valencia.
Dumb
By the way it says he was Asian.
I’m not referring to race. Just saying it usually happens down south. They even have road signs warning of it, because it happens constantly. I’ve nearly hit them 2x driving down there at night. It’s a well known fact out there.
What’s dumb is running across the freeway in traffic!

Why was the 5 north closed about 4 PM today? The sheriffs were walking the freeway right before McBean off ramp.
Someone was throwing dangerous stuff out there window as they were trying to pull over a car
I say next time they get on the blow horn and have everyone in the stopped traffic get out and find what they are looking for… It would be faster not as safe but faster lol thanks for the info I was stuck in it
danggggggggg
What happened when the idiot ran across the road?
We’ll I’m glad the CHP did not get involved in trying to stop the individual, otherwise another bs law suite for them.
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.♥♥♥♥
Omg how sad rip :'(
So sad
