On Tuesday, June 23, 2026, just after 7:45 a.m., Sacramento Police Department patrol officers responded to reports of a collision involving a vehicle that struck a parked vehicle, causing the parked vehicle to subsequently hit a pedestrian in the 3400 block of Ramona Avenue. Responding officers located an adult male pedestrian on scene with life threatening injuries. The pedestrian was transported to an area hospital for medical treatment.
