A 43-year-old man who got out of his car after a crash in Watertown on Wednesday night was killed when another vehicle struck him, according to state police.
Marc A. Warzocha was driving a 2005 Chevrolet Equinox on Route 8, just before the exit 37 off- ramp at 9:40 p.m., and was injured when he was involved in a one-car crash, police said.
After his car stopped, the 43-year-old man got out of his vehicle, walked across the median and onto Route 8 north, where he was hit by another car.
An ambulance responded and transported Warzocha to Waterbury Hospital, where he later died.
State police are investigating and said the driver who hit Warzocha stopped.
Route 8 northbound was closed for several hours on Wednesday night, but has reopened.
