NARRATIVE

A PASSENGER IN A VEHICLE THAT WAS STOPPED ON THE RIGHT SHOULDER OF THE WEST BOUND EXIT RAMP TO TIFFIN, EXIT #237, EXITED THE VEHICLE AND WALKED EAST BACK DOWN THE RAMP. THE PEDESTRIAN THEN WALKED INTO THE TRAFFIC LANES OF WESTBOUND I-80. AFTER NEARLY BEING STRUCK BY A SEMI TRACTOR TRAILER AND AN AUTOMOBILE, THE PEDESTRIAN BECAME PRONE OR NEARLY PRONE NEAR THE CENTERLINE OF THE WESTBOUND LANES OF I-80. IT IS UNCLEAR WHY THE PEDESTRIAN WAS NO LONGER UPRIGHT. VEHICLE #1 WAS WESTBOUND ON I-80 WHEN THEY STRUCK AND RAN OVER THE PEDESTRIAN AS HE WAS PRONE OR NEARLY PRONE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WESTBOUND LANES. DRIVER #1 STOPPED MOMENTARILY, 1/8 TO 1/4 MILE DOWN THE ROAD AND CHECKED THEIR VEHICLE BUT SEEING NO DAMAGE, CONTINUED ON HIS WAY. DRIVER #1 CLAIMS HE WAS NOT AWARE THAT THE OBJECT HE HAD STRUCK IN THE ROADWAY WAS A PERSON. VEHICLE #2 WAS ALSO WESTBOUND ON I-80 AND DRIVER #2 SAW AN OBJECT LYING IN THE TRAFFIC LANE AHEAD AND ATTEMPTED TO STEER TO THE RIGHT TO AVOID IT. DRIVER #2 THEN RECOGNIZED THAT IT WAS A PERSON LYING IN THE ROAD. THE FRONT LEFT TIRE OF VEHICLE #2 RAN OVER THE LOWER LEG OF THE BODY AND DRIVER #2 PULLED TO THE LEFT SHOULDER OF THE ROAD AND STOPPED, ATTEMPTED TO RENDER AID TO THE VICTIM, AND REMAINED AT THE SCENE.
