Construction worker hit, killed by hit-and-run Lexus in Clear Lake
A 78-year old driver may be facing charges after he fatally struck a construction worker and kept going. The worker was apparently trying to cross Galveston Road between Pineloch Street and City Lake Boulevard when he was struck by the northbound silver Lexus outside an athletic complex. Instead of stopping the elderly driver of the Lexus kept going until he was pulled over by a witness. Police performed sobriety tests on the driver at a nearby gas station and then placed him in custody for further questioning. The name and age of the deceased construction worker has not been released.
