Officials are investigating a fatal hit-and-run accident involving an
apparent bicyclist on Interstate 10 just north of Marana.
"In my 30 years of law enforcement this is probably the worst scene
I've ever seen," said DPS Sgt. Gary Durree.
The Department of Public Safety began receiving phone calls just after
6:00 p.m. from motorists describing an animal carcass in the middle of
the westbound lanes.
When officers arrived they realized the parts on the interstate were
that of a human.
DPS shut down all westbound lanes for an 11-mile stretch between Marana
and Red Rock. Traffic was detoured while DPS completed their
investigation.
The victim is described as a white male with a tattoo of a black spider
on his right shoulder.
Not one motorist pulled to the side of the interstate to inform DPS of
what they saw.
Investigators did find various parts of vehicles in the area as well as
the bicycle the victim was apparently riding at the time of the
accident.
If you have any information about this incident you're asked to call
the Department of Public Safety at (520)
