SCOTTSDALE, AZ - A man was struck and killed in Scottsdale Thursday night as he was running across the street to a bus stop, officials said.

The 56-year-old man was reportedly running across Hayden Road near Camelback Road, when he was struck by a white Chrysler 300 traveling southbound.

Police said the man was not in the crosswalk when he was hit by the female driver.

He was reportedly transported to a Scottsdale hospital where he died from his injuries.

Pubins said impairment was not a factor in the accident.
