Colorado man hit, killed by car in Rosemont

A Colorado man was fatally struck by a car Friday morning in northwest suburban Rosemont.

Dennis R. Forninash, 63, was jogging at 10:05 a.m. on Higgins Road east of River Road in Rosemont when he was hit by a 2006 Nissan Sentra that was headed west on Higgins, according to Cook County sheriff’s office spokeswoman Sophia Ansari and the Cook County medical examiner’s office.

Forninash, who lived in Colorado Springs, was taken to Lutheran General Hospital in Park Ridge, where he was pronounced dead at 10:32 a.m., authorities said. An autopsy Saturday ruled his death an accident.

The driver remained at the scene after the crash, Ansari said.
