Woman Killed, Driver Arrested in Lemon Grove Hit-and-Run

The driver has been arrested and charged with felony hit-and-run.

A woman is dead after she was killed by a hit-and-run driver driving an SUV Saturday night in Lemon Grove.

San Diego County Sheriff's deputies arrived at the 2400 block of Massachusetts Avenue shortly before 8 p.m. after receiving multiple calls about a woman seen lying on the street, bleeding. When deputies arrived, they found the woman and attempted CPR, but she died at the scene.

The driver has been identified as 46-year-old Guillermo Alvarado-Soler. He initially fled the scene but returned about an hour later. He was arrested for felony hit-and-run. Drugs and alcohol were not a factor, deputies said.

Witnesses said they saw the SUV speed down the street. The driver's SUV has been towed.

The victim was a woman in her 20s who was out jogging at the time of the accident, according to deputies. Her name has not been released by officials.

By Sunday morning, a makeshift memorial made of flowers and candles were placed at the corner where the accident happened.
