A 55-year-old man died Sunday night after being hit by a pickup on McHenry Avenue in Modesto.

The collision occurred around 9 p.m., north of Leveland Lane, said Modesto Police officer Nicole Valker.

She said the man was in the roadway when he was hit by a white pickup, which then drove away going south on McHenry.

The man, whose name was withheld pending notification of his family, was taken to a Modesto hospital where he died of his injuries.

Valker said there was a bicycle involved in the collision but it remains under investigation whether the man was riding it or walking it.
