A 32-year-old man was killed Saturday evening when he was struck by two cars in North Fort Myers.

The Florida Highway Patrol says the man was trying to cross North Tamiami Trail south of Mariana Avenue when a car struck him, and as he was on the ground, another car ran over him.

Troopers say the car that initially hit the man stopped while the second car left and was later found at a North Fort Myers home.

The crash, which occurred at about 11:30 p.m., remains under investigation.

The Florida Highway Patrol no longer releases the names of those involved in crashes, citing Marsy’s Law.
