Man In Wheelchair Dies After Being Struck By Vehicle

Drugs or alcohol do not appear to be a factor for the driver in the death of a man who was killed while crossing Hilltop Drive in a wheelchair Monday night. At about 6:15PM the unidentified man was crossing the street outside of a marked crosswalk when he was struck by a northbound Dodge Caravan driven by 32-year-old Jannelle Lynn Thomas of Redding. The man in the wheelchair was wearing dark clothing, and it appeared that he had been drinking. He was taken to Mercy Medical Center where he died. His name is being withheld until notification of next of kin.
