The man killed as he crossed Highway 50 in South Lake Tahoe on November 5, 2016 has been identified as 58-year-old Daniel Wallace Curry of Carson City, Nev.
A delay in release of the victim's name was due to the El Dorado County Coroner's Office having trouble locating the next of kin.
Curry was attempting to cross the roadway outside of a crosswalk near Heavenly Village Way at 10:40 p.m. when he was hit by a 61-year-old female Blackjack Taxi driver.
The accident doesn't appear to be alcohol or drug related. There have been no citations or arrests.
According to SLTPD Lt. Brian Williams, the driver appears to have been driving properly.
