Pedestrian Fatally Struck by Rideshare Driver in Santa Clara

 
SANTA CLARA, CA (November 9, 2020) — A 57-year-old man died in Wednesday’s pedestrian accident on Montague Expressway near Mission College Boulevard.
 
According to news reports, the fatal incident happened around 4:25 p.m. just before officers responded to a call about the crash.
 
Upon arriving, police found a man with significant injuries and immediately rendered life-saving efforts; however, the unidentified victim died at the scene as attempts to save him fell short.
