Atascadero man struck and killed near Santa Margarita

December 17, 2018

An Atascadero man who was lying in the middle of a roadway near Santa Margarita early Saturday morning was struck and killed by drivers going in both directions. [KSBY]

At about 6 a.m., Matthew Eugene Gunn, 47, was lying on West Pozo Road near Las Pilitas Road while there was heavy fog in the area. A driver from Templeton struck and killed the man, then a Santa Margarita resident who was driving in the opposite lane also hit the man’s body.

It is unclear why he was lying on the road.

I guess he didn’t hear that orange is the new black…


Thats some pretty funny stuff, there homeboi. You got jokes, I’m sure his family appreciates ttphe humour. Probably brightens their holday immensely


It is abundantly clear why he was lying in the middle of the road on a foggy morning.


Please clarify what was so abundantly clear? Perhaps you were the 1st to hit him & that’s makes it clear to you. I’m still foggy on the apparent obviousness of the reason.might you elaborate, please?
