One of two pedestrians was killed while attempting to cross DuSable Lake Shore Drive Tuesday morning in the Streeterville neighborhood.
As the two began walking across lanes of traffic in the 800 block of North Lake Shore Drive, Jaime Humberto Melgar Limon was hit by a southbound BMW X3 about 5:25 a.m., Chicago police said.
The 31-year-old was taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital, where he was pronounced dead, police said. The other pedestrian was not injured.
A 63-year-old man behind the wheel of the BMW was taken to the same hospital with panic symptoms.
The men did not cross at a crosswalk, and police are probing the crash.
