Authorities in Menifee are urgently seeking the public’s assistance to locate the driver responsible for a deadly hit-and-run incident that claimed the life of 53-year-old San Bernardino resident, Lucia Delgado. According to the Menifee Police Department, the tragic event unfolded just before 7 a.m. on Sunday, near McCall Boulevard and Aspel Road, as reported by KTLA. Delgado was found lying in a dirt field adjacent to the road and was pronounced dead at the scene by arriving paramedics.
