A pedestrian lost their life in San Jose Friday morning after a vehicle struck them on the 1400 block of Mburi Road. Police got the call just after 9.15 a.m. on April 24th, 2026, and the victim's identity hasn't been released yet. This crash hits close to home because it follows a string of similar incidents in the area. Less than three days earlier, two other pedestrians got hurt in a separate wreck Tuesday night. Even more heartbreaking, that same Tuesday afternoon, an 18-month-old boy died after a minivan hit him in the parking lot of a local condo, complex. These back-to-back tragedies have folks talking about pedestrian safety in San Jose, with drivers and walkers facing real risks on busy streets and lots. No word yet on charges against the driver in Friday's fatal crash. Police are still investigating all these cases, urging everyone to stay alert behind the wheel and on foot to prevent more lives from being cut short.
