Woman dies after being hit by car while crossing street

“Authorities believe 64-year-old woman was not walking on the crosswalk when she was hit by car.”

STANTON – A 64-year-old woman has died at a local hospital after being hit by a car on Beach Boulevard Thursday night, authorities said.

The woman, who has not been identified, was crossing Beach Boulevard just north of Chapman Avenue at 10:54 p.m. said Lt. Ted Boyne of the Orange County Sheriff’s Department.

At the same time, a 65-year-old man was driving a Lexus north on Beach Boulevard.

Authorities believe the woman was not walking in the crosswalk when she was hit by the Lexus, Boyne said.

She suffered severe injuries and was taken to a nearby hospital, where she died a short time later, he said.

Her identity is being withheld until next of kin has been notified, Boyne said.
No citations and no arrests have been made, Boyne said. The incident is still under investigation.
