該名受害學生為22歲的中國交換學生Chuan-Zhuo Liu（音譯劉川卓），Fremont消防局大隊長內優（Mark Neveau）透露，劉川卓往生前住在聯合城（Union City）的一個寄宿家庭，就讀菲蒙市西北理工大學（Northwestern Polytechnic University）。
而據阿拉美達驗屍官辦公室透露，已經與劉川卓的寄宿家庭取得聯繫，據悉該家庭是劉川卓的教父母，劉川卓來美國唸書也是教父母代為安排的。據他瞭解，劉川卓來美國應該有一段時間了，對當地環境也算熟悉瞭解。
加州高速公路巡警指出，劉川卓於昨日凌晨3點25分，因為駕駛的1994年豐田房車拋錨，將車靠邊停在州際公路880南向剛過Mission Boulevard出口的路肩。
內優表示，劉川卓曾經打電話向寄宿家庭求救。不幸的是，在寄宿家庭趕到之前，他的豐田遭到一輛2003年凌志Lexus 470運動型多功能車的撞擊。
當局指出，該輛凌志當時要下Warm Springs Boulevard出口時，速度太快，打橫撞上劉川卓的車。撞擊發生以後，因為力道過大，兩輛車子滑到離事發現場100碼以南的積水地，劉川卓當場身亡。
當局指出，劉川卓寄宿家庭趕到現場以後，看到有人從肇事車輛徒步逃逸，不過他們無法確定嫌疑犯是男是女。當局在初步調查和聯絡目擊證人後指出，相信嫌犯為一名20歲左右的亞裔男子，身高5尺5寸，體重約為150磅。當局相信事發後嫌犯全身被水池中的泥巴覆蓋，而且很可能在車禍中受傷。
醫療救護人員清晨四點的時候來到事發現場。內優透露，救護團隊目擊，凌志車翻覆壓在劉川卓的豐田車上，豐田車陷入水中大約六到八英吋，他受困車中動彈不得。
內優表示：「當我看到他錢包裡有他和女朋友的合照，我真的覺得很難過。他離家這麽的遠，又是這麽的年輕。」
事發後，加州高路巡警馬上封鎖高速公路，只留下一線道讓十位救援人員工作。救援人員花了45分鐘，敲開豐田車兩個車門以及鋸掉一部分的車頂，才把劉川卓的遺體移出。
加州公路巡警聯同Fremont警局和消防局人員，在事發後使用可以探測人體溫度的熱量造像相機於附近搜索逃逸嫌犯，警方也搜索了鄰近地區和當地醫院，不過未有收穫。
警方已於清晨五點半將車禍現場清除完畢。加州公路巡警將繼續調查車禍，任何人有關於車禍的相關訊息，請與當局Hayward分局聯絡，電話是（510）489-1500。

Police seek driver in crash that killed Chinese student
STUDENT FROM CHINA WAS WAITING IN CAR
By Lisa Fernandez
Mercury News
The California Highway Patrol today was still seeking the driver of a sport-utility vehicle that hit a Toyota stuck in the mud near Fremont in the pre-dawn hours Saturday and instantly killed a 22-year-old student from China.
After several international phone calls, Fremont Fire Department Battalion Chief Mark Neveau said he reached the woman who raised the victim -- Liu Chuanzhuo -- and she was driving two hours to an unknown city in China to alert his parents.
Liu was studying at Northwestern Polytechnic University in Fremont, living with an elderly female relative he called ``Grandma.'' That woman didn't speak English but had a neighbor translate for her, Neveau said, when authorities showed up with Chuanzhuo's driver's license, credit cards and school ID. The woman, authorities said, was distraught at the news.
CHP officer Paul Cheever says nvestigators are looking for an Asian man, perhaps 25 or 30 years old, standing about 5 feet 11 inches tall and weighing 150 pounds.
Cheever said the man possibly sustained injuries and was last seen wearing muddy clothes. He was driving a silver 2003 Lexus SUV when it smashed Liu's 1994 Toyota Corolla about 3:25 a.m. That man ran away on foot after the collision, which occurred at the southbound off-ramp of Warm Springs Boulevard off Interstate 880.
Cheever would not disclose to whom the SUV was registered, and said he didn't believe that the driver and Liu knew each other.
Just before the fatal accident, Liu had parked his Toyota in the triangular patch off the exit because he had somehow gotten stuck in the mud, Cheever said. No one knows what he was doing at that hour; authorities said that earlier in the day he had delivered food to a sick friend.
As he made phone calls for help, the SUV drove off the exit at a ``high rate of speed,'' Cheever said, and struck the driver's side of the Toyota. Liu was killed on impact.
The collision caused both cars to slide about 350 feet down a drainage canal, Cheever said, and the Toyota was partially submerged in water.
Fremont police and firefighters searched the area and hospitals for other victims as well as the SUV driver using a thermal imaging camera that can detect body heat -- to no avail. It took 45 minutes to extricate the man from his car. The accident closed parts of the highway until 5:30 a.m.
