The westbound lanes of the 10 Freeway in Pomona were closed for four hours late Thursday and into Friday after a pedestrian was struck and killed, the CHP reported.

The man, identified only as a white adult male of unknown age, was reported walking in the westbound lanes at 11:10 p.m., said Officer Elizabeth Kravig of the California Highway Patrol.

Minutes later, he was struck by at least one vehicle, said Kravig, and responding officers pronounced him dead on the scene.

The eastbound lanes were unaffected, said Kravig. The westbound lanes reopened at 3:30 a.m.
