Troopers said a vehicle, possibly a 2004-2015 Toyota Camry was traveling east on State Road 50 and ran off the road, striking the man, who was in the grassy shoulder. The man was pronounced dead at the scene, an FHP crash report said.

The vehicle left the scene of the crash, but troopers found a vehicle part that may be linked to the car, officials said.

The FHP said the Camry likely has damage to its front grill, headlights and windshield.

Anyone with information about the crash is asked to call the FHP at 407-737-2213 or Crimeline at 800- 423-TIPS.
