A Jackson man who was struck and killed by a hit & run driver on Monday night has been identified as 64-year-old Pervis Stalnaker.
Authorities were called to Highway 28 near Swamp Road in Beech Island late Monday after a male pedestrian was struck by a vehicle that fled the scene, Coroner Darryl Ables said.
“Autopsy showed Mr. Stalnaker died from injuries sustained in the incident,” Ables said in a press release. “Toxicology analysis are pending.”
The S.C. Highway Patrol and MAIT are continuing with the investigation. No details have been released on a possible suspect or vehicle description.
