by City News Service • June 12, 2017

LITTLEROCK – A 38-year-old man was struck and killed by a motorist who was unable to see him while the pedestrian was walking across Pearblossom (138) Highway Friday night in Littlerock, authorities said.

The pedestrian was later identified as Jorge Oliva of Littlerock, the CHP reported. The fatal collision occurred around 9:50 p.m. Friday, June 9, on Pearblossom Highway near the intersection of 85th Street East.

Oliva was walking south across Pearblossom Highway outside a crosswalk west of 85th Street East, when he was struck by a 2015 Lexus driven by a 62-year-old man from Lancaster.

    Judge Judy talks about if not for one’s own actions they would not be in the mess they are in. This guy is an illegal alien. Had he not broke the law he would be alive today. What comes around goes around.
