Chatham-Kent police say a 78-year-old man has died from his injuries after a serious crash in Wheatley late last month.
Officers say John Allen Bedford was rushed to a hospital in Windsor with serious injuries after he was hit by a vehicle at around 11pm on March 27 while he was walking across Erie St. S between Moore St. and Lamarsh St.
Police say he has since succumbed to his injuries.
In a previous release, officers reported that the person who was driving the vehicle that hit Bedford, also a 78-year-old Wheatley man, stopped immediately to help.
The crash is still under investigation and officers are again asking anyone with information to contact Constable Randy Whittaker at randyw@chatham-kent.ca or 519-355-1092.
