Officials say a homeless man was killed when after he was struck by two vehicles Saturday night in Bridgeport.
The incident happened at the intersection of Park and Olive streets around 8:45 p.m..
Investigators say Aaron Simutowe was struck by an SUV, then dragged by a small sedan and then became trapped under its front end.
Police say the driver of the sedan fled on foot after the car hit and dragged Simutowe, who was later pronounced dead at St. Vincent's Medical Center.
They say that the drivers of both vehicles have been accounted for, but it's too early to say if either will face charges.
