Kirkwood Man Dies After Hit And Run Accident

A fifty-year-old Kirkwood man has died after being the victim of a hit and run car accident this week.

The Kirkwood Police Department were on the scene, where the man was found lying in the road, unresponsive. He was taken to an area hospital, where he was later pronounced dead, according to an article on the KSDK.com website.

The police have no leads as to who is responsible for the accident, which happens all too often in the St. Louis area. As your St. Louis personal injury attorney, if you or someone you love is ever involved in a similar car accident, we want you to know that we are dedicated to getting you the justice you deserve.

While the identity of this victim had not been released at the time this article was posted, the family is devastated at their loss. These types of accidents can be caused by a number of things – drunk driving, distracted driving (texting or using a cell phone while driving), or simply by the driver being negligent.

Regardless of the reason behind this tragic accident, once the driver is located, he or she will have to answer for this crime. As your St. Louis personal injury attorney, we hope you or a loved one never encounter a similar situation. However, if you do, we will fight hard to get you the compensation you deserve.
