The 2016 Kia Soul hit the 28-year-old woman at the intersection of East Main Street and Roanoke Road shortly before 6:30 a.m., according to the El Cajon Police Department.
A patrol officer arrived to find the victim unconscious and performed CPR on her prior to the arrival of paramedics, ECPD Lt. Darrin Forster said. An ambulance crew then took the woman to a hospital, where she was pronounced dead. Her name was withheld pending family notification.
“At this point in the investigation, alcohol or drugs are not suspected to be a factor in the collision,” Forster said Monday afternoon.
