JACKSONVILLE, Ala. (AP) - An Alabama college student struck by a car near campus has died.
Calhoun County Coroner Pat Brown tells news outlets that 23-year-old Justin Tinker was crossing a highway near Jacksonville State University on foot when he was struck by another student’s car Tuesday night.
He was treated at the scene, and pronounced dead at a hospital.
The driver remained on scene and talked with officials. It’s unclear if any charged will be filed.
