PEARBLOSSOM – A 52-year-old man was struck and killed Tuesday night while crossing the street in Pearblossom, authorities said.
Vincent O. Caylor was pronounced dead at the scene of the collision, which occurred around 9 p.m. Tuesday, July 17, on SR-138 at 126th Street East, according to a California Highway Patrol report.
Caylor was walking northbound across SR-138 when he was struck by a 2007 Toyota Corolla that was traveling westbound on SR-138, the CHP report states.
“For an unknown reason, [Caylor] walked into the direct path of [the Corolla]. [The Corolla’s driver] was unable to stop prior to striking [Caylor],” the CHP report states.
The driver, 47-year-old Daniel Fernandez of Lancaster, was not injured in the collision. There were three adult passengers in the Toyota Corolla and none of them were injured in the crash, according to the CHP.
“Alcohol and/or drugs are not suspected to be a factor in this collision,” the CHP report states.

David Davis says
He was mentally ill and thought it was good luck crossing dangerous streets to escape people following him
The American people need to create a trade balance by not purchasing Chinese made products

Thank you
Victor Haggy says
Go ahead say some more nasty things about my brother. He did not do this on purpose. Vince was almost deaf and very bad eye sight. So go ahead . Say nasty things to make my mother, myself and the rest of our family feel bad. I guess I can expect a keyboard jockey, who only cares about themselves. To make rude comments.

I have noticed that J-walking is frequently done by the African American community. I do not know the color of this man. However, J-walking is stupid. Sometimes I see people J-walking several feet from the safety of a designated traffic controlled walking area. It is true inpatients foolish. Just go to the damned light, wait for green, look, and go. When I was a kid we played that game, “green light red light go” apparently this game is not played in the black or Mexican community as just several months ago and Mexican girl was killed on S&47TH. We can learn from the white man on this one. They wait for the light to turn green even when the light is malfunctioning. WAIT BABY WAIT-GREEN LIGHT.

IGNORANCE AT IT’S BEST…has nothing to do with race.
Pancakes says
You are a white “save the people of color want to be savior girl” who wants to be politically correct but is also afraid of people of color and feels safe from attack by defending them “see I defend you , I like you, please don’t kick my but” who pretends to be insulted when a minority ,you believe,should be offended and who makes excuses for their bad behavior or rationalizes their bad decisions but it is people like you that hurt people of color by not allowing them to accept
And take responsibility for their bad actions so that the bad ones would be rejected by their owno community and not procreate DNA defective people , if you reject the bad ones so will their own and not allow their daughters to accept the cripp and the cholo and cleanse the race
Agree says
I agree with you Susan, Ignorance is the best excuse.
Tanya says

why jawalk on the highway? says

Tim Scott says
He was crossing at an intersection, not jaywalking. The article plainly says the accident occurred AT 126th street.
You don’t know everything Tim says
He was not crossing at an intersection.
Tim Scott says
So the article, which clearly says the accident occurred at 126th Street, is wrong?
Mark says
Could because if you look at the picture a little closer it’s a Camry not a corola
Les says
There is no intersection there, no light, no 4 way stop, 126th dead ends at Pearblossom Hwy. and is desert on the north side of it. The gas station and market on the north side of Pearblossom at 125th has been torn down so there is really nothing to be crossing the street for. The article say “at” 126th as a location indicator. It does not say “at the corner of” and even if it did it is still not a location that anyone traveling on the 138 would expect someone to be crossing at.
Tim Scott says
A T intersection is still an intersection. So not J walking. If you want to go by “the driver didn’t expect anyone to cross at that intersection” so doesn’t have to watch for someone crossing, fine, but the law doesn’t actually work that way.
