HUNTINGTON, WV. (THECOUNT) — Angel L. Johnson, of West Hamlin, West Virginia, has been identified as the pedestrian fatally struck by a vehicle in Huntington on Friday night, according to Saturday reports.
Johnson, 30, was killed after being struck by a vehicle while on-foot in the area of Interstate 64 in Huntington on Friday night.
