A woman died after she was struck by a vehicle while crossing the road in Alhambra on Tuesday, April 11, authorities said.
Around 2 p.m., the victim was crossing Garfield Avenue in a marked crosswalk at the intersection with San Marino Avenue, according to Alhambra Police Sgt. Michael Montano. A sedan heading westbound along San Marino Avenue attempted to make a left turn onto southbound Garfield Avenue when the vehicle struck the victim.
The victim, a woman in her 60s, was taken to a hospital where she later died from her injuries. Her identity was not released Tuesday pending notification of family.
The driver remained at the scene and was cooperating with authorities. Drugs or alcohol were not believed to have factored into the crash, Montano said.
