Pedestrian killed in crash in Phoenix

City police said the man was hit during a crash between two vehicles. Both drivers remained on scene.

PHOENIX — A pedestrian was fatally struck by two vehicles in Phoenix overnight, the city police department said. 

The crash happened just before midnight on Thursday near 15th Avenue and Bell Road. When officers arrived on scene, they found 41-year-old Touraj Hosseinabadi with serious injuries. First responders later pronounced him dead on the scene.

Investigators believe that Hosseinabadi was crossing the road in disregard of a traffic signal, and was struck by the two vehicles during his crossing.

Both drivers remained on scene following the crash, and authorities don't think impairment was a factor for either driver. The investigation is still ongoing.
