At 8:45 p.m. on June 10th, 2015, Michael Wright, age 48, was crossing US Route 301 at 17th street in Sarasota, state of Florida, USA. The crossing light was apparently still yellow when Michael was crossing. Barely halfway across, a car hits him and flips him up into the air.

According to eyewitnesses. Michael was thrown 100 feet and scattered down the road along with the broken pieces of his wheelchair as well as the grill of the car that hit him, which never stopped. Wright was still alive when police arrived and he was taken to hospital. However, he succumbed to his injuries the next morning. Police are asking for help from the public in identifying the vehicle and driver.
