(UNDATED) – A Niles man died from his injuries after being struck by a vehicle Saturday evening.

Michigan State Police say at 6:40 PM police and first responders were called to a car versus pedestrian incident at a Marathon Gas Station on U.S. 12 and Reum Road near the Cass-Berrien County Line. Troopers were first on scene and gave first aid to the victim until a SMCAS ambulance arrived.

Troopers say 70 year old Earl Edward Doss of Niles died at the scene from his injuries.
