Police ID pedestrian killed in suburban St. Louis crash
FERGUSON, Mo. (AP) — Police in suburban St. Louis have identified a man killed in a hit-and-run crash over the weekend. St. Louis County police say 45-year-old Michael Dukes, of Florissant, died in the early Saturday crash at an intersection in Ferguson. Investigators say Dukes had been involved in a crash at the intersection around 12:30 a.m. Saturday and was walking across the roadway when he was hit by a southbound vehicle that fled the scene. Investigators say the crash pushed Dukes into the path of another vehicle, and he was hit again. Police say the second vehicle remained on the scene and is cooperating with investigators. Dukes was rushed to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
