LOCAL : Help Needed to Identify Victim
The Orange County coroner’s department today asked for the public’s help in identifying the body of a woman who was struck and killed while attempting to run across the Costa Mesa Freeway last weekend.
The woman was struck by more than one vehicle when she attempted to cross the southbound lanes north of McFadden Avenue in Tustin about 5:15 p.m. Saturday, Deputy Maureen Albrecht said.
Albrecht said the woman is between 40 and 45 years old; 5 feet, 2 inches, and 122 pounds. She was wearing black wool slacks with gray stripes, a black cotton polo shirt and L.A. Gear tennis shoes.
A check of the woman’s fingerprints failed to determine her identity, Albrecht said. Anyone with information about a missing person fitting this description is asked to call the coroner’s office at (714) 647-7400.
