One man dead after fatal crash with Capital Metro bus
A man was killed after being hit by a Captial Metro bus on Thursday night.
Austin police say the crash happened around 11:30 p.m. at E St. Johns Avenue and Carver Avenue. According to police, the bus driver says the victim was laying on the ground in the road. Police aren't sure if the man was hit by another car before being hit by the bus.
APD says there are no witnesses who saw the crash, but someone was driving in the opposite direction who may have seen something in the road and thought it was just debris at first. That driver stopped and turned around when they realized it was a person.
APD says the man killed was in his 30s. Police say no passengers were onboard at the time of the crash. Austin police and Capital Metro are investigating.
