Chicago resident Michael Cordell Payne died at the scene according to the Cook County Medical Examiner, when a Chicago Transit Authority bus struck him on the city’s south side.
According to Chicago’s WBBM News Radio 780, Payne, 51, was hit by a No. 14 Jeffrey Ave. bus heading north. Payne was neither boarding or exiting the bus, and the bus driver was very shaken-up after the accident.
Witnesses of the accident say conflicting things, and an autopsy will be performed to help determine any possibility of foul play. The bus was in service and had passengers on board - but no one on board was injured.
At this point, there are no injury lawsuits. No further information is currently available.
