A man was knocked down by a gray 2011 SUV while crossing East Illinois Avenue in Oak Cliff on Saturday night, according to Dallas police.

It was around 9 p.m. on September 17 when the man reportedly entered the 3800 block crosswalk with the crossing light showing “no crossing.”

He was in the middle of the three-lane expressway when the oncoming GMC Terrain SUV driver struck him.

The driver “immediately stopped” and remained at the scene for emergency services vehicles to arrive.

The victim, who has not been identified, was taken to a nearby hospital, but he did not survive.

There are currently no reports of charges against the driver.
