An initial investigation showed that a 54-year-old driver was heading south on North Indian Canyon Drive when his vehicle struck the pedestrian, according to police. The driver stayed at the scene and cooperated with officers, who had him undergo a series of sobriety tests.

Michael Torres, a spokesperson for the department, said police are not releasing names at this time. The driver was taken to the Riverside County Jail in Indio for booking.
The Riverside County Sheriff's Coroner's Bureau took custody of the pedestrian, whose identity is being withheld until his next of kin has been notified. Police said the investigation is ongoing and asked anyone with information to contact the department at (760) 327-1441.
