1 Person Dies after Anderson Pedestrian Crash on Highway 273 near Alexander Avenue

Anderson, California (March 24, 2020) – One person was killed in an auto-pedestrian crash on Monday morning in Anderson, according to police.

The deadly crash happened on Highway 273 near Alexander Avenue, a few moments to 3:00 a.m., on March 23.

The police said a pedestrian was, for unknown reasons, struck and killed by a vehicle on the highway.

Following the crash, the pedestrian was pronounced dead at the scene. The identity of the victim was not disclosed.

The involved driver was reportedly uninjured and was not intoxicated at the time of the accident.

Officials closed one lane of the highway and later reopened it at about 4:30 a.m.

An investigation into the crash is underway.

“A person on foot is no match for a large, multi-ton vehicle. Pedestrians have virtually no protection when they are hit by cars, motorcycles, trucks, and other vehicles” Managing Partner and CEO Alpine Law Group, Mr. Arin Khodaverdian, believes. “Sadly, this often leads to catastrophic injuries including temporary or lifelong disability, severe disfigurement, severe physical and emotional pain, and/or death.” He adds.

Mr. Khodaverdian has worked for many years as a wrongful death and personal injury attorney. He and his team of attorneys have helped thousands of injury victims and their families recover over $100 million in compensation. “In one case, we recovered a 7-figure settlement within 11 business days of being hired by the family of a victim who was killed by a negligent driver.”

Swift action by an experienced attorney helps preserve evidence, interview witnesses, and begin to pursue those responsible for the incident.
