Paramedics performed CPR on scene before transporting the man to Saint Vincent Healthcare. He died at the hospital later in the day. Police said the victim apparently fell to the ground before a 1990 Ford Taurus, driven by a 77-year-old female, drove over him. They are still investigating the accident and have not issued any citations yet.
Yellowstone County Coroners plan to conduct an autopsy Tuesday to determine if the man's death was caused by the accident or a pre-existing medical condition.
