Man struck by vehicle in Bethel Park expected to survive

A man hit by a vehicle on Library Road in Bethel Park Thursday night was in critical condition Friday but expected to survive, according to Allegheny County Police.

County police Lt. Andrew Schurman would not release the name of the 46-year-old Bethel Park man, who was hit in the 5800 block of Library Road. Police were dispatched shortly before 9 p.m.

The scene near Logan Road was not far from where three women were killed in a crash earlier this week.

Schurman said the man was crossing the road to get to a store. The man was not crossing at an intersection or in a crosswalk, he said.

The male driver, who also was not identified, remained at the scene, Schurman said.

There were no indications that alcohol, drugs or distracted driving were involved. No charges have yet been filed, but the case remains under investigation, Schurman said.

Library Road was closed at Logan Road until about 12:30 a.m. Friday while police investigated.
