According to Senior Superintendent of Police Mitieli Divuana, the incident occurred around 1 a.m. last Friday on the Queens Road near Talenaua in Navua. Reports indicate that the victim was lying in the roadway when he was struck by a vehicle driven by a 36-year-old man.

The victim was transported to Navua Hospital, where he was sadly pronounced dead upon arrival.

In an effort to shed light on this case, authorities are releasing images of the clothing the victim was wearing and a tattoo located on his left arm, hoping it may prompt someone to come forward with identifying information.
