A 39-year-old man suffered head injuries Thursday night after being hit by a car on Northeast Highway 99 in Hazel Dell.
Scott Martin of Battle Ground was in the emergency room at Southwest Washington Medical Center late Thursday night and his condition was not available, a hospital employee said.
About 8 p.m., witnesses said, Martin was crossing the highway on foot at 72nd Street, against a red light, when he was struck by a Chevrolet Astro van driven north by Harold Sullivan, 68, of Ridgefield.
Martin was dragged about 70 feet under the van before Sullivan could stop, according to a bulletin from Sgt. John Horch with the Clark County Sheriff’s Office.
