An adult male was struck by a vehicle in a hit-and-run crash near Alturas Road and Aviation Road in San Diego County, on Wednesday afternoon, October 29, 2025.
According to the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department, the collision was reported at approximately 4:44 p.m.
Witnesses reported the suspect vehicle as a white SUV or sedan, possibly a Tacoma, Chevrolet Tahoe, or Suburban, driven by a heavy-set Hispanic woman. The driver did not stop after striking the pedestrian. Investigators noted that the front end of the vehicle likely sustained damage.
The injured pedestrian was treated at the scene and then transported by ambulance to meet a Mercy Air helicopter near North County Fire Station 1 on Ivy Street around 5 p.m. His condition was not immediately released.
Authorities are investigating the incident as a death investigation rather than a traffic collision, as the deceased party, a 37-year-old male, was found.
No further details were immediately available.
Don’t Know What To Do After An Accident?
Your safety and rights depend on what you do next after an accident. Remember the following steps if you find yourself in one:
- Check yourself for any injuries.
- Stay on the scene, call 9-1-1, and wait for emergency responders.
- Move your vehicle to the road shoulder if safe; turn on hazard lights.
- Fully cooperate with law enforcement and stay until cleared to leave.
- Document the scene and injuries with photos and videos.
- Seek immediate medical attention.
- Contact your insurance company and find a personal injury lawyer for legal advice.
What A Lawyer Can Do For You
Many victims put off calling a lawyer even if they sustain injuries after an accident. However, lawyers can help you in many ways. They can provide you with police reports, CCTV footage, and witness statements to strengthen your case. Your attorney will also negotiate with insurance companies to get you fair compensation. The best part is that they will do all of these things for you at no upfront cost. So if you’re injured in an accident, hire a personal injury attorney to recover medical bills, car repair costs, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
