The Florida Highway Patrol is looking for a suspect after a fatal hit and run pedestrian crash Saturday in Escambia County.

A pickup truck was traveling westbound on Mobile Highway and struck a pedestrian that was on the shoulder of the road east of Buckingham Road.

The pickup fled the scene after the crash, and the  57-year old male pedestrian was pronounced deceased on scene.

From vehicle parts recovered at the crash site, FHP determined that the pickup is possibly a 2014-2015 Toyota Tacoma with right side damage.

Anyone with information on the crash is asked to call Corporal Diaz or Trooper Van Pelt at (850) 245-1402 or *FHP.

    I agree @Alex. A drunk driving coward or one who has drugs on them or in them…or both.. That’s terrible about that man. God rest his soul and please catch the person who killed him.
