CITRUS COUNTY, Fla. — A pedestrian was killed in a Citrus County crash on Saturday when he attempted to cross a roadway, authorities said.

A Dodge Ram, driven by a 75-year-old Lecanto man, was traveling eastbound on County Road 490, approaching South Lantana Way at about 11:57 p.m.

At the same time, a male Homosassa pedestrian, 36, was walking a Lectric bike across the roadway.

According to a Florida Highway Patrol report, the pedestrian entered the path of the Ram and was struck.

The pedestrian was pronounced dead at the scene.
 

A South Tampa man turned to Susan Solves It after he said ADT told him he had to keep paying for a security system at his Hurricane Helene-damaged home, even though the system was so new that he never had a day of service.
