Philadelphia, PA (November 23, 2022) – Around 2 a.m. on Sunday morning, November 20, a man was killed in a fatal pedestrian accident in Philadelphia.

According to Philadelphia Police, the accident happened at 2700 Comly Road. Police confirmed that a man identified as 22-year-old Frederick Falcon was traveling in the area when he purposely struck a pedestrian with his vehicle after an argument. The driver then fled the scene of the accident.

Paramedics, fire crews, and several other responders were called to the scene to help those in need. The pedestrian, who has since been identified as 24-year-old Jason Corona, was rushed to Jefferson Torresdale Hospital, where he was tragically pronounced dead due to traumatic injuries.

The roadway was blocked in the area of the accident for some time following the accident.

Falcon allegedly surrendered to police on Tuesday after the accident. He has since been charged with third-degree murder, manslaughter, homicide by vehicle, and more.

The investigation into the circumstances of the accident continues at this time.

We offer our warmest condolences to the family and friends of the victim whose life was lost in this accident.

11/23 Philadelphia, PA – Jason Corona Killed in Pedestrian Accident on Comly Rd

Pedestrians are some of the most at-risk parties on our roads in the state of Pennsylvania. This is due to the fact that pedestrians have no protection from harm in the event of an accident involving any type of large vehicle. Between the years 2012 and 2020, it was reported that approximately 158 pedestrians were killed in fatal accidents, and many others were seriously injured. Drivers are supposed to be on the lookout for pedestrians at all times, but this does not mean that they will always watch out for these vulnerable parties. If you have lost someone you love in a pedestrian accident, it is crucial that you speak with an attorney as soon as possible.

Losing someone close to you in a fatal pedestrian accident is never an easy thing to endure. As you are grieving the immense loss of a loved one, you may wonder how you will afford to pay the bills that pile up against you. It can be stressful to deal with the aftermath of a fatal pedestrian accident. There are many parties who could be successful at bringing a wrongful death claim, such as the following:

  • Parents of the deceased
  • Children of the deceased
  • Spouse of the deceased
