CHP: Pedestrian fatally struck near Hemet by hit-and-run driver

Last Updated on August 27, 2022 by C-CAR

A pedestrian was fatally struck near Hemet late Thursday night, Aug. 25 by a vehicle that fled, the California Highway Patrol said.

Car parts left behind prompted the CHP to start a hunt for a gray Honda, said Officer Jason Montez, a spokesman for the CHP San Gorgonio station. The model of Honda wasn’t immediately clear to investigators, he said.

The collision is believed to have happened a few minutes before midnight on Stetson Avenue east of Columbia Avenue, Montez said. No information was available Friday on the pedestrian, including a name and where that person was on the road.

The CHP asks anyone with information about the crime to call 951-769-2000.
