Virginia State Police Trooper J. Hausler is investigating a fatal crash involving a pedestrian in Clarke County on Monday at 9:32 a.m. on Route 7.

A 2000 Kenworth tractor trailer was traveling west on Rt. 7, when a male pedestrian suddenly walked into the westbound travel lanes. The tractor trailer was unable to avoid striking the man. The tractor trailer immediately stopped at the scene and its driver, a 55-year-old Gore, Virginia man, was not injured.

The pedestrian, Kevin L. Talley, 52, of Berryville, Virginia, died at the scene as a result of his injuries.

The crash remains under investigation. No charges have been placed.
