Pasadena Pedestrian Struck and Killed by Car Wednesday Night Identified

A coroner’s official has identified Evenglist Hendricks, 48, of Pasadena, as the woman killed by a car as she crossed Washington Boulevard just west of North Lake Avenue near Prime Court at about 9:48 p.m. Wednesday night.

Los Angeles County Coroner Chief Public Information Officer Brian Elias said that Hendricks was pronounced dead at the scene.

Pasadena Police Lt. Mark Goodman said the car’s driver, a 54-year-old Altadena woman, remained at the scene after the accident and was cooperative.

The driver was not detained and alcohol does not appear to have been a factor in the incident, Goodman said.

Goodman said the victim was apparently crossing Washington Boulevard in a northerly direction when the eastbound driver struck her in the number one lane.

Accident investigators closed both directions of Washington Boulevard between North Lake Avenue and North El Molino Avenue for hours to investigate the incident.

No further details were available.
