Once there, officers located an adult male pedestrian, being treated by medical personnel.

The victim was transported to an area hospital where he later died.

Preliminary investigation revealed that the driver of a pick-up truck was backing down the alley when he struck the male pedestrian, who was laying down in the alleyway.

The driver of the truck did remain on the scene.
