COSTA MESA, Calif. -- A woman who apparently jumped from a Hummer limousine as it traveled on Interstate 405 early Wednesday was killed, authorities said.
A preliminary investigation showed the woman was struck by several cars after jumping out of the limousine, said police Sgt. Loren Wyrick, adding that investigators have not ruled her death a suicide.
"We don't have her ID yet. We don't know what the motivation was and the circumstances leading to her death," Wyrick said.
Police said the woman was not the only passenger in the limo at the time she jumped, and passengers had been consuming alcohol prior to the incident.
The woman died shortly after 5 a.m., causing southbound traffic on the busy San Diego Freeway to back up for miles, Wyrick said.
Costa Mesa is in Orange County 74 miles northwest of San Diego.
