Overview
- San Francisco police arrested Zhuo Ming Lu, 76, on Friday on suspicion of vehicular manslaughter and unsafe speed after investigators said they developed probable cause.
- Police said the car, which was attempting to park at 7:43 a.m. on March 27 at Grant Avenue and Jackson Street, jumped the curb, struck two pedestrians, then crashed into New Lun Ting Cafe.
- Authorities identified the person who died as 49-year-old Cutberto Zamora, a father and primary provider for his family, and said a second pedestrian had non-life-threatening injuries.
- According to police, Lu stayed at the scene, cooperated with detectives, and alcohol or drugs are not suspected in the crash.
- The department describes an open, active investigation led by its Traffic Collision Investigation Unit, and the crash damage and loss have fueled local calls for safer street design and, for some, retesting for older drivers.
