QUINCY — A man died Saturday after he was struck by a Mercedes-Benz SUV while crossing Quincy Shore Drive near Wollaston Beach, State Police said.
The man, who was 68 and from Canton, died at Boston Medical Center, where he was rushed after being struck around 11:20 a.m., State Police said in a statement.
He was not immediately identified Saturday night.
The driver of the Mercedes, a 75-year-old man from Newton, remained at the scene, the statement said.
The pedestrian was in a crosswalk when he was struck by a 2018 Mercedes-Benz GLC traveling in the left lane. Speed does not appear to have been a factor in the crash, the statement said.
Several onlookers, including lifeguards from the beach, rushed to help the man, State Police said.
They “provided medical aid” to try to save the victim’s life, the statement said.
At the scene, one local resident said the victim appeared to be crossing the intersection of West Elm Avenue and Quincy Shore Drive.
She pointed at what appeared to be blood dried on the pavement near the busy intersection.
“It’s so sad, I wonder if I knew him,” said the woman, who is 68.
The investigation into the crash is ongoing. It will include a review of crosswalk signals, the statement said.
No charges had been filed as of late Saturday night.
