Phelan Woman Killed in Hit-and-Run Pedestrian Crash on Phelan Road near Buttemere Road

PHELAN, CA (September 16, 2024) — Cynthia Moss was tragically killed in a hit-and-run pedestrian accident on Phelan Road near Buttemere Road late Monday night. Authorities identified the alleged driver as 77-year-old Roosevelt Madison Garrett, who is accused of fatally striking Moss, a 65-year-old woman using a walker to cross the street.

After the collision, evidence suggests Garrett stopped briefly to untangle Moss’s walker from his damaged vehicle before fleeing the scene.

Cynthia Moss Was Pronounced Dead At The Scene

The fatal incident occurred around 7:40 p.m. on September 16. According to investigators, Garrett was driving a 2009 white Kia Sportage SUV eastbound at an unknown speed when he hit Moss, who was crossing the road in a southerly direction. The impact from the crash threw Moss onto the shoulder of the road. She died at the scene from her injuries, as confirmed by the San Bernardino County Coroner’s office.

Authorities searched the area Monday night but could not locate the suspect or his vehicle at that time.

Our heartfelt condolences go out to the family and friends of Cynthia Moss.
