Audelio Esquivel Tapia, 68, was killed in a hit-and-run steps away from his home. According to police, this is the 17th traffic fatality in just the first two months of this year, and the 10th pedestrian killed in San Jose.
Police say they received a call just before 4:30 p.m. and found the man with life-threatening injuries. Police posted an announcement on social media at 8:48 p.m. to say the man died of his injuries. On Thursday, the medical examiner identified him as Audelio Esquivel Tapia. He lived steps away from where he was killed.
People who live nearby say South White Road is dangerous with people frequently speeding and even drag-racing along the wide street."When they start off at this light, by the time they get here is 70- to 80-miles-an-hour," said Fred Anderson, whose house was next to the crash site. Neighbors say another problem is there are not enough crosswalks.
The collision happened near a YMCA where many families come and go and neighbors say there's a school and a park nearby too, but no easy way for people to cross the street. On South White Road alone, KTVU has responded to at least three other collisions since the start of 2022.On Jan. 12, the driver of an SUV was speeding and hit a minivan near Almond Drive, killing the minivan's driver.
