ASHLAND (AP) — A Georgia man was killed after he was struck while crossing a highway in Ohio on foot after his vehicle had crashed into a median, authorities said.
Tyrrell Louden, 38, of Atlanta, was reportedly driving recklessly when his vehicle hit the center median in the northbund lanes on Interstate 71 in Ashland County on Thursday night, the Ohio State Highway Patrol said in a news release.

The 50-year-old driver who hit Loudon remained on the scene and the highway patrol said he was not considered to be at fault.
