Loveland, CO : Pedestrian killed by crash in Fort Collins on Tuesday, November, 21st 2017
A man died shortly after being hit by a car 5:55 p.m. Tuesday while crossing Drake Road at an intersection with Canterbury Drive in Fort Collins.
An 18-year-old driving a 1999 Honda sedan without headlights on collided with the man, who was crossing Drake Road from north to south, a press release from Fort Collins police said.
The man driving the Honda was identified as Garrett Dibble in the release. Dibble was driving west on Drake. The man who was killed will be identified by the Larimer County Coroner's Office following an autopsy.
Police do not believe alcohol, drugs nor speed contributed to the crash, the release said.
An uninvolved truck was traveling a short distance in front of the Honda. The truck had its headlights on, but the sedan behind it did not. As the truck passed Canterbury Drive, the man who was struck began crossing Drake. He was hit by the front of the Honda in right through-lane of westbound Drake.
Police closed the lane on Drake between Raintree Drive and Constitution Avenue for about four hours while investigating the scene. Criminal charges stemming from the incident are pending, the release said.
