DETROIT (FOX 2) - A construction worker died from injuries he suffered after he was hit by a car while in a work zone Wednesday in Detroit.
Police said the 53-year-old Lincoln Park man was working in the right lane of southbound I-75 near Springwells when he was hit by a Kia car driven by a 71-year-old Allen Park man around 1:40 p.m. The victim was taken to a hospital, where he died overnight.
"We want to remind drivers to move over when they see construction vehicles on the side or in the roadway working," said Michigan State Police F/Lt Mike Shaw "The suspect that struck the worker stopped on scene after the crash.
