Los Angeles, CA (JAN 31st, 2025)- A pedestrian killed in a freeway accident while walking on the San Bernardino (10) Freeway connector road near Monterey Park and Alhambra has been identified as 47-year-old Manuel Gonzalez.

The tragic incident occurred late Wednesday night, prompting an immediate response from California Highway Patrol (CHP) officers. According to CHP Officer Megan Curtis, officers were dispatched at approximately 11:08 p.m. to the eastbound 10 Freeway near the connector road leading to the Long Beach (710) Freeway. Investigators determined that Gonzalez had been walking within a construction zone in the middle lanes when he was struck by a dark-colored vehicle.

Reports indicate that multiple vehicles struck the victim following the initial impact. Sadly, he was pronounced dead at the scene. The Los Angeles County Office of Medical Examiner later confirmed his identity. The crash forced authorities to shut down three freeway connector lanes while conducting their investigation.
