The victim was standing in lanes on the westbound 91 Freeway when they were hit by a car. Details about why the person was on the freeway were not immediately available.
Some westbound lanes were closed a few minutes later. Closures remained in effect into Monday morning, when traffic was backed up for roughly 15 miles to the 15 Freeway.
