One person is dead and another injured after a bus collided with a pair of pedestrians in Redondo Beach’s Riviera Village Wednesday evening.
According to Redondo Beach Police Department Sgt. Shawn Freeman, an elderly couple was crossing Avenue I at about 6:15 p.m. when they were struck by a Los Angeles Department of Transportation commuter bus turning eastbound from Catalina Avenue to Avenue I.
Both were trapped under the bus when RBFD arrived on the scene. The man was considered dead at the scene. The woman, who police said is 70 years old, was transported to Harbor General Hospital, and was described as responsive. Police have not identified the man yet, nor released the woman’s name. The LA Coroner’s Office will assist in identifying the man.
