The Clovis Police Department’s Collision Reconstruction Unit is investigating a fatal traffic collision that occurred earlier this evening.  Just before 5:30 p.m. tonight, a Clovis Police Officer arrived on a vehicle vs. pedestrian accident that had just occurred on Villa north of Bullard in Clovis.  The officer located an adult female that had been struck by a Ford Mustang and was in need of immediate medical attention.  Officers and bystanders attempted life saving measures until Clovis Fire and paramedics arrived.  Unfortunately, the female succumbed to her injuries while being treated on scene.

At this time, the cause of the accident has not been determined and is currently under investigation.  The driver of the vehicle was uninjured and is cooperative with investigators.  Alcohol/drug impairment does not appear to be a factor in this investigation.
