 A 77-year-old pedestrian was struck and killed by a car on a street in Chula Vista early Wednesday.

The man was in the roadway in the 600 block of L Street when an eastbound 2014 Toyota Corolla hit him at about 6:30 a.m., according to Chula Vista police.

The pedestrian, whose name has been withheld pending family notification, died at the scene, Officer Carson Tabor said.

It was not immediately clear who was at fault, though intoxication is not believed to have been a factor, Tabor said.
