Clay, N.Y. — A man who was struck and killed by an SUV Wednesday has been identified as 56-year-old Sean Gleason of Liverpool, deputies said.
Gleason was found unconscious and with severe injuries around 5:18 p.m. in the 7300 block of Oswego Road in the town of Clay, said Sgt. Jon Seeber, a spokesman for the Onondaga County Sheriff’s Office.
Gleason appeared to have been crossing Oswego Road before he was hit by a 2005 Buick Rainier, Seeber said. Gleason died shortly after arriving at Upstate University Hospital, Seeber said.
The SUV’s driver, William Orton, 64, of Fulton, was not injured, Seeber said.
Oswego Road between Long Branch Road and Old Cove Road was closed for several hours Wednesday while deputies investigated the crash, Seeber said.
Deputies are continuing to investigate the crash.
