Intersection reopened after man in wheelchair killed in early-morning Parkway collision
A pedestrian was killed in a Friday morning crash at a Parkway intersection in south Sacramento, police say.
The collision, on westbound Mack Road just west of the intersection with Center Parkway, was reported in a 911 call by the involved driver just before 3:30 a.m., Sacramento Police Department spokesman Officer Marcus Basquez said.
The victim was a man in a wheelchair, who was pronounced dead at the scene by fire personnel, Basquez said.
Basquez said the investigation is in early stages, but that drugs, alcohol and speed do not appear to have been factors in the collision.
The intersection was reopened to traffic at 8:30 a.m., but officials say the investigation is ongoing.
The victim will be identified by the coroner’s office pending notification of family.
