SEYMOUR — A 55-year-old Michigan man was struck and killed late-Thursday on I-65 in the Seymour area.

Indiana State Police say David Buchanan of Stanwood, Michigan was driving north on 65 when his Chevy Silverado left the road and became stuck in the median.

Buchanan began walking north on 65 where he was hit by a Jeep driven by Franklin Reed, a 23-year-old Nashville, Tennessee man.
