A Greensburg man died after being hit by a vehicle while walking across Claridge-Elliott Road into work at Elliott Group in Jeannette.

A Greensburg man died Tuesday after being hit by a vehicle in Jeannette, according to police Chief Donald Johnston Jr. and the Allegheny County Medical Examiner.

Ronald Momeyer, 65, was in a cross walk on Claridge-Elliott Road heading into work at Elliott Group at 6:15 a.m. Monday when he was hit, Johnston said. Momeyer had parked in a lot across the street from the building.

The driver called 911 and stayed at the scene until police and paramedics arrived. Momeyer was taken by medical helicopter to UPMC Presbyterian in Pittsburgh. He died there shortly after 1 p.m. Tuesday.

Penn Township police are helping with the crash reconstruction, Johnston said.

The road has a few crosswalks in the area of the Elliott Group building and signs alerting drivers to pedestrians. Elliott Group declined to comment.
