Pedestrian Hit Twice, Killed On Street Road

BENSALEM, PA — A man walking across Street Road early Wednesday morning was hit by two vehicles and killed, according to Bensalem Police.

Police were called at 5:21 a.m. to the intersection of Street Road and Brookwood Drive. There, police say, a man was walking in the crosswalk attempting to get to the nearby 7-Eleven when he was hit by a vehicle traveling east on Street Road.

The man had not been identified Wednesday morning. Police say the pedestrian had a red light and the vehicle's driver had a green signal when he struck the man. That driver stopped and cooperated with police.

But, while the pedestrian was in the roadway, he was hit by another passing vehicle on Street Road. That vehicle pulled into the parking lot of First Stop Tobacco at 1606 Street Rd. and a woman who was driving was seen screaming and making a phone call, according to police.

She then got back into her vehicle and left the scene, police say. Wednesday afternoon, police shared a photograph of what they believe to be the vehicle (see image below).

Neither alcohol nor drugs appeared to be a factor in the crash, police said.

Anyone who witnessed the accident is asked to contact Bensalem Policde at 215-633-3719.
