PONTIAC, Mich. – Police in Oakland County hope new video can help solve the case of a man who was struck two cars and left to die in the middle of the road.
The crash happened on Featherstone Street at Martin Luther Kind Jr. Boulevard in the city of Pontiac around 11 p.m. Sunday.
Police say the SUV has an uncommon front end with the turn signal mounted under the headlight that could lead to the identification of the vehicle type and the driver of one of the two vehicles that struck a 60-year-old Pontiac man.
Investigators say the suspect’s SUV is a smaller car, possibly dark blue and should have minor damage near the passenger side headlight.
They have not yet identified the vehicle make.
The Pontiac man was found dead in the middle of Cameron Avenue, north of Featherstone.
The victim’s family has not yet been notified of the death.
Investigators say the man was crossing Featherstone at the crosswalk when he was struck by an SUV.
The driver appeared to pull off to the side of the road but did not report the crash.
A second SUV struck the man and continued east on Featherstone.
Neither driver reported the crash nor stopped to aid the Pontiac man, according to police.
Police say one of the SUVs dragged the man’s body a half mile west of Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard.
Anyone with information on this crash is asked to call the Sheriff’s Office at 248-858-4950 or Crime Stoppers of Michigan at 1-800-SPEAK-UP
