An autopsy performed on a male body found on I-26 confirms they have injuries consistent with being hit by a car. The victim’s identity has not been released at this time. The body was discovered Thursday morning by a Department of Transportation employee who was cutting grass in the median of I-26 from mile marker 176 to 178. The body was there for at least a month before it was discovered. Investigators believe he was hit by large vehicle, potentially a semi-truck. The incident caused authorities to close to roadway for several hours in order to investigate. According to news reports, investigators are following several leads relating to the pedestrian crash.
As a Columbia auto accident lawyer, my thoughts are with the family of those harmed. I hope nobody else was hurt in this collision. If you or a loved one were harmed in an auto accident, discuss your case with a personal injury attorney who can evaluate your case and help protect your rights, along with answer any important legal questions you may have regarding your claim. A personal injury lawyer can help guide you through your case by assisting you with the legal processes associated with your case in order to reach the best possible outcome for your claim.
