Michigan State Police say the 38-year-old from Eastpointe was walking on the south I-375 ramp toward Jefferson Avenue early Saturday when the car hit him. The driver pulled over and called 911, and told investigators that he didn’t see the pedestrian.

The driver wasn’t hurt and the investigation continues into the crash.
