Roy Hernandez Struck, Killed by Vehicle on West Lodi Avenue in Lodi

Lodi, California (February 3, 2020) – The San Joaquin County Coroner’s Office has identified the pedestrian who died after being hit by a vehicle Sunday evening in Lodi as Roy Hernandez, 59, of Lodi.

The fatal pedestrian crash happened in the 800 block of West Lodi Avenue at around 6:10 p.m. Sunday, February 2.

Hernandez was hit by a vehicle on West Lodi Avenue.

Paramedics responded to the scene and performed CPR on Hernandez. Despite life-saving measures, he succumbed to his injuries at the scene.

The driver involved remained at the scene and cooperated with police. It remains unclear whether drugs or alcohol were a factor in the accident.

The road in the area was shut down as the police investigated the crash.

No other details about the accident were given.

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.
