Based on various reports it appears that it was a homeless person.
.
It is unclear if the victim was in the crosswalk or on the
roadway of the onramp itself… the latter a place where the “pedestrian” isn’t allowed nor expected.
.
Of course, it was homeless and of course, it was not in the proper place for people to be. And of course, it was 3 AM.
The ex-husband of a female came after the boyfriend with a hatched, tried to move out of the way and got hit by a car.
