York Regional Police say they are looking to speak with witnesses after a 52-year-old man was struck and killed by a vehicle in Vaughan Friday evening.

Police said they were called to the intersection of New Huntington Road and Zenway Boulevard shortly after 4 p.m. for reports of a pedestrian struck.

Officers arrived and located the Toronto man who died.

It’s believed the man was in the road when he was hit by a transport truck, which didn’t remain at the scene, police said.

The truck reportedly had a white cab with a silver metal dump trailer.

On Friday, police told Global News it’s possible the driver was unaware the pedestrian was hit.
