A tragic incident occurred Wednesday evening on the 110 Freeway in South Los Angeles, resulting in the death of a pedestrian. Initial reports indicate the individual was struck by multiple vehicles while on the freeway.
Emergency services responded to the scene shortly after 8:45 PM, where the pedestrian was pronounced dead at the site. All lanes were briefly closed to allow first responders to manage the situation, though two lanes were reopened shortly thereafter to ease traffic congestion.
The circumstances surrounding the incident remain unclear. Witness accounts suggest that a man was seen dancing in the lanes shortly before the crash. Authorities have not confirmed whether the deceased individual was the same person or if the activity occurred after traffic came to a halt.
Investigators are working to determine why the pedestrian was on the freeway and the exact sequence of events leading to the fatality. Anyone with additional information is encouraged to contact local law enforcement.
