Questions Surround Death Of Man On I-75

ERIE TOWNSHIP, Mich. (AP) - Southeastern Michigan authorities say a 27-year-old Toledo, Ohio, man was on foot on Interstate 75 when a driver struck and killed him.

The Monroe County sheriff's department says the man died about 11:15 p.m. Saturday in Erie Township, about seven miles north-northeast of the Ohio line.

The department says in a statement that James E. Mosher Jr. was walking along southbound I-75 and was wearing dark clothing.

It says a vehicle may have struck him or may simply have been lying in the road when a vehicle driven by a 24-year-old woman from Canton, Michigan, hit him.

The department says Mosher died at the scene, while the driver was uninjured.
