SAN CLEMENTE, Calif. (AP) - UCLA freshman wide receiver Nick Pasquale has been struck by a car and killed while walking in San Clemente. He was 20.

The Orange County Sheriff's Department reports that Pasquale was struck about 1:30 a.m. Sunday.

It wasn't immediately clear if he was trying to cross a street.

However, Sheriff's Lt. Gary Strachan says the car's driver stopped, called authorities and stayed with Pasquale until they arrived.

The accident is under investigation. Strachan says no one was arrested.
