According to officials, a 45-year-old man was on foot in the area of southbound I-35W. While there, a southbound vehicle struck the man, then reportedly left the scene.

How Did This Accident Occur?
I certainly don’t know more about this than what little is in these preliminary reports. However, I don’t recall many situations where a driver left the scene of an accident where they didn’t do anything wrong. Perhaps this driver was intoxicated or fleeing from a previous accident. Maybe they were unlicensed and shouldn’t have been driving at all. Finding out for sure means finding the driver, and I hope authorities continue to put details out to the public. A lot of the time, someone in the community is able to come forward and provide new details for officials.
