Pedestrian Dies in Barstow Car Accident

An unidentified female pedestrian was struck and killed in a San Bernardino County pedestrian accident that occurred on June 13, 2011, around 12:37 a.m. along the 2300 block of West Main Street. According to San Bernardino County coroner's officials, the pedestrian suffered life-threatening head and upper body injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene.

From the limited available information, it is unclear what caused the traffic accident. Investigating officers need to determine the exact cause, how fast the vehicle was travelling, and if the driver was distracted or intoxicated.
