Ventura, California (February 11, 2020) – Johnny Menchaca, 37, has been identified as the pedestrian who died after being hit by a vehicle Sunday evening in Ventura, according to the Ventura County Medical Examiner’s office.

Police responded to the intersection of Beachmont Street and East Harbor Boulevard after a report of an accident at about 7:22 p.m., February 9.

Authorities said Menchaca was either in the crosswalk or walking in the street when a vehicle struck him.

Menchaca was pronounced dead at the scene.

The involved driver stopped and cooperated with the police.

An investigation into the accident is underway. Anyone with information about the collision is asked to call the Ventura Police Department Traffic Unit at 805-339-4451.

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.
