Man Sleeping on Sidewalk Struck and Killed in San Diego

A man sleeping on the sidewalk was struck and killed in a tragic car crash that occurred on March 17 around 6:30 a.m. near the San Diego Convention Center. According to San Diego police, a 50-year-old woman driving a Mercedes north on Harbor Drive near Park Boulevard veered off Harbor Drive due to a medical issue.

The man sleeping on the sidewalk was struck and suffered serious injuries. He was pronounced dead at the accident scene.

The San Diego fatal auto accident victim’s family members should consult with an experienced car accident lawyer to determine if the accident was the cause of someone else’s negligence. Though the driver suffered a medical issue, the accident may have been prevented.
