Early this morning, a tragic turn of events unfolded on the east side of San Antonio as a man's body was discovered on the access road of Interstate-10 near the North Foster Road exit. Reports from KENS 5 indicate the individual, whose age is estimated to be between 30 and 50, was likely struck by the back end of an 18-wheeler, with investigators suggesting the driver may not have realized the collision occurred. KENS 5's report highlights that although the incident did not have any direct witnesses, multiple drivers made the emergency calls to notify the San Antonio Police of the grim discovery.
Further details emerged from FOX San Antonio, revealing the man who was hit to be a homeless individual. The San Antonio Police Department confirmed the victim was pronounced dead on the scene. In an unfortunate twist, the driver involved did not remain at the site, leaving them yet to be caught and to subsequently face potential charges. FOX San Antonio's coverage reflects the stark reality that this man died alone, with no one there to witness or immediately assist him in his final moments.
Currently, neither source has provided the identity of the deceased, and as of the moment, both the cause of death and circumstances surrounding the event are under thorough investigation by local authorities.
