Woman Walking From Chargers Game Struck, Killed By Car

A pedestrian who was fatally struck by a car outside Hazard Center in Mission Valley was identified Monday as a 33-year-old Chula Vista woman.

Monica Azero and her boyfriend were on their way home from Sunday's Chargers game at Qualcomm Stadium when they got off the trolley at the Hazard Center stop and attempted to cross the street illegally, according to San Diego police.

A car traveling westbound struck the couple around 4 p.m., pinning both under the vehicle, police said.

Paramedics took them to a hospital, where Azero died shortly after arrival and her boyfriend was listed in critical condition.

The driver, a 22-year-old woman who remained at the scene, was not hurt. Police said there was no way the motorist could have safely avoided the pedestrians in her path.
