A pedestrian was left in critical condition early Saturday, September 19, 2026, after being struck and dragged by a vehicle at the intersection of Glen Oaks Boulevard and Mooresque Drive in Pasadena, California. The crash was reported at approximately 12:37 a.m., and Pasadena Fire Department’s Engine 39 arrived on scene about eight minutes later. The pedestrian suffered major, potentially life-threatening injuries and underwent emergency surgery after being rushed to Huntington Hospital’s trauma center. Pasadena police are continuing to investigate how the collision occurred.
According to ColoradoBoulevard.net, the injured pedestrian received a whole-blood transfusion at the scene from a Pasadena Fire Department battalion chief, becoming the first patient treated under the department’s newly launched prehospital blood transfusion program. Pasadena Now, a second local outlet, reported that Rescue Ambulance 31 transported the patient to Huntington Hospital roughly 16 minutes after dispatch and that the victim remained in critical condition as of Saturday morning. Neither outlet has reported whether the driver remained at the scene, and no details about a suspect vehicle have been released. The investigation into the crash remains active.
