A man walking on a western Minnesota highway after dark was hit by an SUV and died, officials said Tuesday.
The incident occurred shortly after 6:30 p.m. Monday in Rush Lake Township, about 7 miles south of Perham, the State Patrol said.
Dexter R. Brown, 32, of nearby Ottertail, was heading north on Hwy. 78 near Round Lake Loop when he struck 74-year-old Terrance William Maring, of Palisade, Minn., the patrol said.
Maring was "walking in the lane," a statement from the patrol read.
