46-Year-Old Jaime Ferrera Fatally Struck by Car

A devastating accident occurred last week in Long Beach, claiming the life of 46-year-old Jaime Ferrera. Local authorities have confirmed that Ferrera was fatally struck by a southbound vehicle while attempting to cross Atlantic Avenue, near the intersection of 36th Street. The incident, which unfolded on a Friday evening, is a somber reminder of the dangers pedestrians often face on busy city streets.

The Long Beach Police Department responded promptly to the scene, where they discovered Ferrera with critical injuries. Emergency medical personnel provided immediate assistance, but unfortunately, Ferrera could not be saved and was pronounced deceased at the scene. The Los Angeles Medical Examiner’s office later positively identified the victim as Jaime Ferrera, bringing closure to the initial confusion surrounding the incident.

Preliminary investigations by authorities indicate that Ferrera was crossing Atlantic Avenue when the collision occurred. Details regarding the driver involved, such as whether speed, impairment, or distraction played a role, have not yet been fully disclosed.
