Pedestrian Killed in Accident on I-880 Freeway
OAKLAND, Calif. (Aug. 3, 2022) — A fatal Oakland pedestrian accident happened Tuesday night on the southbound Interstate 880 Freeway at the Hegenberger Road West on ramp.
The California Highway Patrol reports the crash occurred about 11:11 p.m. on August 2nd.
A male driver in a gray 2001 Honda Odyssey minivan reportedly struck someone who was walking in the fast lane of the freeway. Additionally, the driver or someone called 911 for help and told dispatch operators the pedestrian was “now inside respondent’s vehicle.”

Meanwhile, police issued a SigAlert and a tow truck responded to remove the heavily-damaged minivan for evidence.
Investigators are working on the case and will determine fault for the fatal Oakland pedestrian accident.
