A man who was hit by a car last week died Monday, police said.

Macario Advento, 70, died at University Medical Center’s trauma unit after he was hit by a car Thursday evening in the central valley, police said.

Advento was crossing Evergreen Avenue near Decatur Boulevard when he was hit by a 2008 Chevrolet Cobalt. Advento was crossing outside a marked crosswalk, police said.

The driver showed no signs of impairment and cooperated with investigators at the scene, police said. Police continue to investigate the crash.

This is the 92nd traffic-related death the Metropolitan Police Department has investigated this year.
