The Sharon Police Department said that a traffic crash between a vehicle and a pedestrian is now under criminal investigation after the man hit by the car died.

91-year-old Donald Sebastian of Sharpsville was crossing East State St. on December 3 when he was struck by the vehicle driven by an 80-year-old Sharpsville man.

Sebastian suffered severe injuries and was transported to an area trauma center for treatment, but later died from his injuries on Thursday, December 15.

The Sharon Police Department is consulting with the Mercer County District Attorney’s Office for charging consideration.
