The crash occurred on 110 Freeway near the 6th Street exit at about 8:30 p.m. Sunday, February 2.

The elderly man was hit by a vehicle while he was waking on the 110 Freeway, the CHP report states.

The man sustained unspecified injuries in the crash. His name and current condition were not immediately available.

The driver involved remained at the scene and cooperated with the authorities.

An investigation into the crash is ongoing.

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. Sadly, this often leads to catastrophic injuries and/or death.
