It happened at around 6 p.m. near Brookhurst Street and Crailet Drive, according to the Huntington Beach Police Department. Officers arrived and found a woman lying in the roadway.

Investigators determined that the driver of a white Toyota RAV4 was heading north on Brookhurst when they struck the victim south of the intersection. She was rushed to a nearby hospital where she was pronounced dead. 

The woman has not yet been identified.
