Today at approximately 12:25pm, Patrol officers for the Tallahassee Police
Department
were called to a traffic crash involving a StarMetro bus and a pedestrian, after
receiving multiple 911 calls about the accident. Leon County EMS and TFD also
responded
and treated the victim on scene before transporting him to a local hospital
where
he succumbed to his injuries.
Investigators with TPD's Traffic Homicide Unit were called to the scene to
review
the evidence. Preliminary investigation has revealed the StarMetro Bus was
southbound
on Pat Thomas Boulevard when a pedestrian began running along the right side of
the
bus, presumably trying to get the drivers attention. The on-going investigation
has
shown the pedestrian was run over by the rear wheels as the vehicle drove along
its
route.
The name of the deceased is being withheld at this time, pending notification to
the family.
