A male pedestrian died Sunday evening when he was hit by a car near the south end of Pattison Lake.

The roadway was shut down for several hours.
Brooks said there was no indication that the vehicle driver was intoxicated or had been driving recklessly. There isn’t a crime being investigated, he said, and no one was arrested.
