A local elderly blind man who is kind of a fixture around the neighborhood recently passed away after being hit by a car in a clearly marked crosswalk with traffic signals. He had serious injuries and was taken to the hopsital but didn't make it
The driver of the car did stop and talked with the police when they arrived on scene. According to the recent local news resports, the police and state police are still "actively investigating". The local DA office is also involved. So far the driver has not been charged with anything and is cooperating with the police. Isn't there something the driver could be charged with, such as failure to stop for a pedestrian in a crosswalk?
The incident happened just before 7am on a clear day - not snowing or icy or anything.
