Officials have publicly identified a septuagenarian who was killed last weekend when a car struck the mobility scooter she was riding on a dimly lit thoroughfare in Ramona several hours before dawn.
Kathleen Mess, 76, was heading north on State Route 67 at about 4:55 a.m. Sunday when a 2014 Toyota Camry hit her motorized three-wheeler from behind near Julian Street, according to the San Diego County Medical Examiner’s Office and the California Highway Patrol.
The impact ejected Mess onto the roadway. She died at the scene of the accident.
Intoxication was not a causative factor in the crash, the CHP said.
