Injury Accident at Stearns St./Cochran St. (Vehicle vs. Pedestrian)

On May 28th, 2019 at approximately 7:45 AM, a 9th grade male Simi Valley High School student (14 YOA) was struck by a vehicle while riding his skateboard. The student was riding southbound on Stearns St., crossing Cochran St., when he was struck by a vehicle traveling eastbound on Cochran St. The male student suffered serious injuries and was transported to a local hospital for treatment.

The driver of the involved vehicle is a 33 year old female from Simi Valley. The driver and the two juvenile passengers were not injured. Based on the preliminary investigation it does not appear the driver was at fault.
