Investigators say a 60-year-old man was crossing Airport Road outside of the designated crosswalk. A vehicle traveling east on that road was not able to avoid the pedestrian, according to FHP. The car hit the man while he was in a travel lane, and that pedestrian died. The crash report says alcohol is not believed to be a factor on the part of either the driver or pedestrian.
FHP says their investigation of this crash continues.
