TEMECULA, Calif. (March 6, 2024) — Ariel Bridgeman, 23, of Murrieta, died after being hit by a vehicle Friday morning on the northbound Interstate 15 Freeway, just north of the Temecula Border Patrol Station.
The collision happened at around 4:45 a.m. on March 1st, according to the California Highway Patrol.
The Murrieta woman reportedly crashed her 2021 Honda Accord on the right shoulder, but her vehicle spun around and wound up in traffic lanes. She exited her vehicle and was hit by a 38-year-old Oceanside man driving a 2017 Honda Civic.
