WICHITA—A Kansas man died in a pedestrian accident just after 10p.m. Friday in Wichita.

An SUV driven by a 62-year-old woman was northbound in the 5800 Block of South Broadway and struck 52-year-old Theodore Nance of Wichita who was pushing a lawn mower, according to Officer Trevor Macy.

Investigators learned Nance was pushing the lawnmower across Broadway from southwest to northeast and not in a crosswalk. The SUV driver was not injured.

The collision is still under investigation, but there is no indication of impairment or excessive speed at this time, according to Macy.
