One person died Wednesday evening in a car vs. pedestrian crash in Deadwood.
The South Dakota Department of Public Safety says an SUV was traveling westbound toward Deadwood around 6:25 pm. The vehicle traveled through the intersection of 14A and Main Street and struck a 38-year-old male pedestrian attempting to cross 14A in a crosswalk.
The 26-year-old female driver of the SUV was wearing a seatbelt and not injured. Charges are pending.
The 38-year-old male pedestrian was transported via Life Flight to a Rapid City hospital where he later died.
Speed and alcohol appear to be factors in the crash.
The South Dakota Highway Patrol is investigating the crash. All information released so far is preliminary. The names of the persons involved have not been released pending notification of family members.
