It all happened in broad daylight. Police say Robert Donohue, 51, was minding his own business crossing the street in a crosswalk with the light. Officials say a dark-colored pickup truck blew through the intersection, mowed him down, and kept on going.
Investigators believe the pickup was fleeing from another crash with a white SUV - its damage plainly visible as police towed it away.
