A tragic incident unfolded in Arlington, Texas, when a man was fatally struck by a pickup truck while crawling across Division Street. Arlington police reported that they arrived at the scene near the 300 block of W. Division Street at approximately 7:30 p.m. Tuesday and found the 48-year-old man critically injured. Despite being rushed to the hospital, he succumbed to his injuries, according to WFAA.
The identity of the man will be revealed following the investigation by the Tarrant County Medical Examiner's Office. Questions are swirling as to why the unnamed man felt compelled to slowly and precariously crawl across the street—a gesture of unimaginable vulnerability on a concrete expanse intended for the rapid passing of motorized steel and horsepower. The driver of the pickup truck is not facing charges, having stopped to call 911 and remained on the scene, cooperating with the investigation, as per police reports, per NBC DFW.
