A pedestrian on a freeway in Arleta was struck and killed by multiple vehicles Friday evening.
Firefighters responded at 9:56 p.m. to where the southbound Golden State (5) and Hollywood (170) freeways meet, north of Sheldon Street, where they found the victim, said Los Angeles Fire Department spokesman Brian Humphrey.
The victim was pronounced dead at the scene, Humphrey said.
All southbound lanes of the Golden State Freeway in the vicinity of the crash were closed, with vehicles diverted to the Hollywood Freeway, California Highway Patrol Officer Patrick Kimball said.
No other injuries were reported.
