Arcata, CA – Pedestrian Injured during Suspected Hit-and-Run Accident along Highway 101 and Bayside Cutoff Off-Ramp

Arcata, CA (July 26, 2018) – The California Highway Patrol reported that a pedestrian was injured during a suspected hit-and-run accident that took place along the junction of Highway 101 and the Bayside Cutoff off-ramp. The incident occurred around 7:19 AM in the morning on Thursday, July 26, 2018. At this time, no details concerning the identities of the pedestrian victim and the suspect driver have been revealed.

As indicated in the CHP log, a pedestrian was walking along Highway 101 when, for indeterminate reasons, an oncoming vehicle sideswiped this individual at the Bayside Cutoff off-ramp. Medical personnel specified the victim sustained injuries during the impact, but this person’s current physical condition has not been disclosed.

While law enforcement officials initially labeled the accident as a hit-and-run, no additional details about this case were released.

As of now, the situation requires further investigation. As more evidence begins to surface, more information will be released to public sources.

We extend our most heartfelt prayers and loving thoughts to the pedestrian victim and wish this individual a swift and efficient recovery during this difficult time.

Pedestrian Accident in Arcata

By law, drivers involved in an accident are required to stay at the crash site and cooperate with authorities. Fleeing the scene is considered a criminal, cowardly offense that can result in severe punishment including charges of felony. Based on the information provided by CHP, the suspect driver will be held accountable for causing a hit-and-run accident and, ultimately, the injuries sustained by the pedestrian.

The victim may have a choice to file a personal injury lawsuit against the suspect driver pending the conclusion of the case. With the help of a professional lawyer, the non-guilty party can receive compensation for multiple inconveniences including painful injuries and medical bills.
