Lorenzo I. Bryant, 37, of the 1000 block of Pheasant Run Lane, Aurora, was pronounced dead at the scene in the intersection of Ogden Avenue and Long Grove Drive, police said Tuesday on Facebook.
The DuPage County Coroner’s Office identified Bryant on Monday, Aurora police said.
A 19-year-old Aurora man was driving a 2013 Buick Regal westbound on Ogden with a 19-year-old woman also in the car when it struck Bryant, who was on foot, about 11:10 p.m. Saturday, according to police.
