Late Monday evening first responders raced to a Jeep vs pedestrian accident at the 1400 block of West Granite Street in Butte.
According to witnesses, two young men had been struck by a black Jeep with a red top. Witnesses could not say whether the top was soft or hard, Sheriff Ed Lester said in a press release.
The men were 23 and 21. The 23-year-old died shortly after he arrived at Saint James Healthcare. The 21-year-old sustained a lower leg injury, but it was not life threatening.
The Jeep was westbound when it hit the men. The vehicle did not stop, but continued west onto west Park Street. It was last seen turning west at the west end of Park Street near Montana Tech’s HYPER complex, the release said.
The identity of the dead man is not being released until his family has been notified.
