1 Dead, 2 Hurt In Oakland County Hit-And-Run Crash: Sheriff

PONTIAC, MI — A man was killed and two other people were injured in a Wednesday night Oakland County hit-and-run crash, according to the sheriff's office.

The crash happened at 11:05 p.m. Wednesday at the intersection of North Saginaw and East Huron streets in downtown Pontiac, officials said.

Officials said three pedestrians were using the crosswalk at the intersection when they were struck by a black vehicle, possibly a smaller SUV.

Investigators believe the traffic signal was flashing red for North Saginaw Street traffic when the pedestrians crossed the intersection. They said the black vehicle made a right turn onto East Huron Street, hit the pedestrians, and continued moving west, never stopping.

They were all taken to nearby hospitals where a 51-year-old Pontiac man died, officials said.

Officials said two women, ages 29, and both from Indiana remained in the hospital. One was in serious condition while the other was listed in stable condition, officials said.

No other details were released.

Officials were still investigating the crash and asked anyone with information to call the sheriff's office at 248-858-4950.
