In the city of San Diego, California, an unclaimed person case has emerged involving a 64-year-old Black male named Richard Hauch. Richard, who led a transient lifestyle, was discovered deceased on May 11, 2021. The tragic incident took place on Rosecrans Street—a significant thoroughfare in the city—where Richard was struck by a vehicle as he attempted to cross the street just south of the designated crosswalk.
The vehicle involved in the accident came to a stop at the side of the road immediately following the collision, and the driver promptly called 911 for assistance. However, upon the arrival of first responders, Richard's passing was confirmed without the need for medical intervention, as he had sustained obvious signs of fatal trauma. The prompt response, unfortunately, could not alter the outcome of an already devastating situation.
