The fatal accident was not a hit and run – Swedish Radio

A man was killed when he was hit outside Tenhult and the police suspected it was a hit and run accident. But the investigation showed otherwise.

It is not certain that it was a hit and run accident that was behind the fatal accident outside Tenhult the end of February. The forensic examination shows that the man was lying down on the road already, when he was hit.

In the darkness, several motorists drove at him, and the theory was that someone previously motorist run away from the scene. But as the investigation now shows that he was lying down when he was hit is not certain that anyone shied from the site. No one is suspected of any crime.

Why the man lying on the road are unclear, but he was under police intoxicated by alcohol.
