A local man has died from injuries he sustained after being hit by a car on Nov. 29, according to the Bedford Police Department.

Theodore Pobywajlo, 75, of Back River Road in Bedford, was taken to a local hospital after being hit by a car while walking near the intersection of Back River Road and Country Road at around 5:30 p.m. on Nov. 29.

Pobywajlo suffered what police called “serious injuries” and was transported to a hospital where he later died.

The driver of the vehicle, a Bedford man, was not injured and police stated that at this time, alcohol does not appear to be a factor in the crash. No charges have been filed either, according to the alert.

According to online reports, Pobywajlo and his wife were supporters of a number of charitable causes including The Care Givers Inc. of Bedford, Families in Transition, the Animal Rescue League of New Hampshire, and New Hampshire Audubon.
