Roadside Pedestrian Killed Standing by Vehicle

A roadside pedestrian died Tuesday after he was struck by a vehicle on I-15 near Baker. Police say the man was standing on the shoulder when a Kia Forte struck him. The fatal accident occurred around 9 p.m. on northbound I-15 near Mile Marker 105.

According to the California Highway Patrol (CHP), the driver of the Kia crossed over onto the right shoulder for unknown reasons. The vehicle then struck the roadside pedestrian. He suffered fatal injuries and died at the scene. The victim and two other pedestrians were standing outside of a parked Toyota Camry when the crash occurred.

The crash remains under investigation. So far, police do not suspect drugs or alcohol contributed to the incident. Anyone with information about the fatal crash can contact the Barstow CHP at (760) 255-8700.

“Our hearts go out to the victim’s family and friends,” said Attorney Walter Clark, founder of Walter Clark Legal Group.
