Also, late Tuesday, a report posted on the Arkansas State Police website described a Jonesboro crash that killed a pedestrian earlier this year. The crash happened around 5 a.m. Jan. 25 as 51-year-old Kevin Herrera was walking north on Trailwater Drive near Sistine Chapel Circle in Jonesboro, the report said.
Herrera moved to the shoulder as a 2014 Chevrolet approached, driving north on Trailwater Drive, the report said. The vehicle struck him anyway, the report said.
A separate report from the Jonesboro Police Department indicated that the driver gave the injured Herrera a ride back to his home. Herrera declined to be taken to a hospital by ambulance, saying his wife would drive him later, according to the report.
Herrera was later found to have suffered multiple cracked ribs, the report said. He died Feb. 1. The state Crime Laboratory determined that the crash injuries led to his death, the Jonesboro Police Department report noted.
It wasn't immediately clear why the state police posted the accident report several months after the crash occurred.
