The Kansas City Police Department is investigating a crash that killed a pedestrian near the Harry S. Truman Sports Complex Friday evening.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Officers responded around 7 p.m. to the 4600 block of Blue Ridge Cutoff near 46th Street, just north of Raytown Road, on a reported crash.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

That\u2019s just south of Kauffman Stadium and GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A preliminary investigation shows that an SUV drove north from Raytown into Kansas City on Blue Ridge Cutoff when it struck a pedestrian in the road.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Police said in a news release that the pedestrian was either walking along the road or trying to cross when they were hit.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Paramedics pronounced the pedestrian dead at the scene. Police have not yet publicly identified the person who died.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

According to Sgt. Phil DiMartino, a police spokesman, the driver of the SUV remained on scene after the crash and has been cooperating with the investigation.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

DiMartino said in an email that the crash marks Kansas City\u2019s 58th traffic fatality in 2025. That\u2019s compared to 82 traffic deaths at this time last year.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

An investigation into the crash is ongoing.<\/p>\n
