Trooper J. Joseph is investigating the hit-and-run crash that occurred at 9:36 p.m. along Route 33 (Spotswood Trail) near Route 687 (Massanetta Springs Road).

A pedestrian was walking north across the travel lanes of Route 33 when he was struck by an unknown eastbound vehicle.

The hit-and-run suspect vehicle did not stop at the scene and could possibly have damage on the passenger side.

The crash remains under investigation.
