Candice BondA 46-year-old Rocky Mount man was killed late Friday when a car struck him on State Route Y in Morgan County, according to the Missouri State Highway Patrol.
The Late Night Pedestrian Crash on Route Y
The Highway Patrol said the man had been hit in an earlier crash and was lying in the road on Route Y, a short way past Brendel Boulevard. Troopers said that close to 11:30 p.m., a car they have not identified struck him and kept going. The Morgan County coroner pronounced him dead at around 11:50 p.m. His name has not been released.
Where the Highway Patrol Investigation Stands
The Highway Patrol has not described the car or identified its driver. No charges have been announced. The investigation remains ongoing.
Police often share a description of the vehicle they are looking for, such as its color or the damage it may have. Those details help people nearby recognize it.

Here is what families in Missouri usually need, in the order it comes up.
Death certificates. The funeral home or the family can order them, and banks and insurers each usually want a copy.
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.
Survivor payments. If the person who died had worked, their spouse or children may get monthly Social Security payments. Applying early matters.
