A woman who was not wearing pants and was fatally struck as she walked across lanes of the Gardena (91) Freeway in Carson was identified Sunday.
Lizbeth Torres was 35 years old and died from multiple blunt traumatic injuries in an accident, the Medical Examiner’s office said.

Around 6:50 p.m., witnesses began reporting the woman was struck, according to the CHP.
She was pronounced dead at the scene.
Three eastbound lanes were shut down until just after 10 p.m.
