Man Stranded On Arlington Roadside Hit, Killed By Another Car

ARLINGTON (CBSDFW.COM) - A man standing outside his disabled vehicle was killed in around 12:30 p.m. Sunday after he was hit by another car on Highway 287 near the I-20 exit.

The man, who has yet to be identified, was standing with his pickup truck on the side of the northbound lanes just past the Highway 287 overpass, according to a police spokesperson.

Another car traveling on the roadway lost control and "came off the bridge," striking the man standing outside his pickup truck.

The man was pronounced dead at the scene, and the driver of the second vehicle was taken to Medical Center of Arlington with non-life threatening injuries.

APD is still investigating the crash at this time, but preliminary investigations suggest the crash was a result of Sunday's icy conditions.
