A medical helicopter lands on Route 119 near Technology Drive on Monday evening, to fly a pedestrian who was struck by a vehicle to a Pittsburgh hospital.

A Greensburg man was seriously hurt after he was hit by a pickup truck Monday while walking along Route 119 in Hempfield, state police said.

David A. Green, 30, was hit by a Ford F-350 and a trailer it was towing, according to troopers.

The pickup was traveling southbound in the left lane near the Technology Drive exit around 7:15 p.m. Green was on foot along the left shoulder and walked onto the road as the pickup approached, police said.

A medical helicopter landed on the highway, which was shut down for a time. Green was taken to a Pittsburgh hospital for treatment of what police described as serious injuries.

The pickup driver, a man from West Virginia, stopped at the scene, troopers said. He was not hurt.
