A fatal crash occurred Monday afternoon in Simi Valley, California, when a Tesla collided with an outdoor café, resulting in the death of a 79-year-old woman and injuries to six others. The incident took place around 2:30 p.m. at a shopping center off Tierra Rejada Road.
The victim, a resident of Agoura Hills, was struck by the vehicle as she walked outside Urbane Café, which is adjacent to a Target store. Authorities reported that the Tesla driver lost control of the electric vehicle, which then mounted the sidewalk before crashing through outdoor planters and coming to a stop within the patio dining area.
