DICKINSON, N.D. — A 28-year-old Dickinson man has died from his injuries after being struck by a truck on N.D. Highway 22 about 6:30 p.m., Thursday, according to the North Dakota Highway Patrol.
Kyle Lenerville, Richardton, N.D., was driving his pickup truck north about four miles south of Dickinson when he met a southbound vehicle. Once that vehicle passed, Lenerville came upon a man walking in the middle of the lane, according to the Highway Patrol report.
Lenerville tried to stop but hit pedestrian Brendan Smock, who was taken to the hospital and died Friday morning, according to the Highway Patrol.
Lenerville was not injured and the truck sustained “severe front-end damage.”
This is the second Dickinson-area pedestrian death in less than a week. A 68-year-old Dickinson man died Tuesday after being struck by a truck, Dickinson Police Department Capt. Dave Wilkie said.
