A Miami man was killed Monday morning when he was struck by a vehicle on Interstate 95 in Broward, according to law enforcement.

At around 2:35 a.m., the 62-year-old man, who was waiting for troopers in the outside lane of the highway due to a previous crash, was struck by a 2019 Mercedes Sprinter, the Florida Highway Patrol says. The crash occurred in the southbound lanes of I-95, just before Hillsboro Boulevard in Deerfield Beach.

The van was traveling south in the outside lane, where the man was standing outside his car, a 2015 gray Toyota Corolla, according to FHP. The van’s driver hit the man’s car — and then the man — without seeing him.

The Sprinter’s driver has not been identified, but FHP says he was a 41-year-old man from Palm Beach. It’s unclear if he will be charged in connection to the crash.

FHP did not release the victims’ names.

This report will be updated as more information becomes available.
