A tragic incident unfolded on Old Peachtree Road in Suwanee yesterday evening, when a 60-year-old man lost his life after being struck by a car. The Suwanee Police Department has confirmed they are currently conducting an investigation into the deadly collision which occurred around 7:05 p.m., as reported by FOX 5 Atlanta. The authorities have withheld the victim's name to respect the privacy of his family during this difficult time.

Details about the incident remain scarce, and investigators have yet to determine whether the collision was accidental or otherwise. The driver's actions post-collision are also under scrutiny, as police have not disclosed if the individual remained on the scene and cooperated with law enforcement or fled, according to WSB-TV. The uncertainty surrounding the circumstances of the man’s death has led detectives to appeal to the public for witnesses who might provide additional information.

As the case stands, the Suwanee Police Department is reaching out for community assistance. They urge anyone who may have been on Old Peachtree Road at the time of the incident or might possess information that could shed light on the occurrence, to come forward. To facilitate this, Detective Lieutenant Bryn can be contacted at 770-904-7650.
