Pedestrian Killed in Corpus Christi Accident
The pedestrian has been identified as Kevin Ray Frazier, 68, who was found dead on Saratoga Boulevard after a crash near Patti Drive.
Kevin Ray Frazier, 68, was killed in a pedestrian crash on Saratoga Boulevard in Corpus Christi on Saturday, according to Corpus Christi police.
What Happened on Saratoga Boulevard
Officers were sent to Saratoga Boulevard shortly after 4:30 p.m. for a major vehicle accident involving a pedestrian, near Patti Drive. They found the man dead at the scene. Police said the man was heading south across the road from its north side. Frazier worked as a carpenter, and his daughter said he loved to surf and brought the family to surfing contests in Mexico and around the country. He was the father of three children and the grandfather of eight.
Where the Police Investigation Stands
Police said the incident remains under investigation. Several lanes were closed while investigators worked at the scene, and the department said the closures could stay in place for several more hours. Police encouraged drivers to avoid the area and choose other routes. Police asked anyone with information to phone the department's Criminal Investigations Division. Friends of the family have set up an online fundraiser for a service for Frazier.
People often hear very little from investigators in the first days after a crash. That quiet is normal while evidence is gathered, and it does not mean the case has stalled.

Crash report. The crash report is usually ready a few weeks after the crash, and you can still get it later.
Funeral costs. Every state has a victim fund that pays funeral costs after some crashes, and the fund decides who qualifies.
