Investigations from the crash scene reveal that the victim was crossing North Saginaw near Wager Street on foot when he was hit by a GMC Terrain headed north. The victim was pronounced deceased on-site by paramedics who responded to the call.
The driver of the GMC remained at the crash site and cooperated with law enforcement officials. Police continue to investigate the details of the incident. No further information has been released at this time.
Our thoughts are with everyone involved. We would like to offer our sincere condolences to the family of the deceased victim at this time.
When a pedestrian is traveling on a county or city street and they are struck by a passing vehicle, the injuries they may sustain in the crash can be extremely severe. Pedestrians are usually more prone to endure more serious or even catastrophic injuries than the occupants of cars or trucks, as drivers and passengers in these vehicles benefit from various safety features and protection. Pedestrians travel virtually unprotected, putting them at much greater risk of injury or even death if they become involved in a traffic collision.
Certain statistics state that over 78,000 pedestrians sustain serious injuries every year when they are involved in traffic accidents.
