RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CA — The San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department is asking for the public's help in identifying a man who was struck and killed last month by a vehicle near Interstate 15 in Rancho Cucamonga.

A photo of the victim was released on Friday by the law enforcement agency in the hope that someone might recognize the man who is currently listed as a John Doe.

The fatality occurred at about 11:46 p.m., Aug. 15, on Foothill Boulevard, at I-15. No arrests were announced, and the sheriff's department gave no indication that it was seeking a driver.

The victim was "under an overpass when he was struck by a vehicle and died," the sheriff's department explained.

The victim was described as 25 to 35 years old, approximately 5-feet-three-inches tall, weighing 129 pounds, with brown eyes, black hair, with a black mustache and facial hair. He had a Playboy bunny shape tattooed on his left wrist. At the time of his death, he was wearing a denim jacket, sweatshirt, black t-shirt, and black jeans.

Anyone with information about the victim is asked to contact the San Bernardino County Sheriff-Coroner Division at 909-387-2978 and reference case #702505469.
