OREM -- An elderly man died Thursday after a truck hit him in an Orem crosswalk.
Police say the 75-year-old man tried to cross 1600 North near 800 West with two women. The driver of a truck made a left-hand turn and hit all three, dragging the man 30 yards.
The two women had minor injuries, but the man was critically injured and died at the hospital.
Police say the driver did not see the pedestrians because of sun in his eyes. The district attorney's office is screening charges against him.
