A Brady man has died from injuries he sustained when he was struck by a vehicle.

According to a news release from the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office, at around 9:20 p.m., on Tuesday, deputies were asked to respond to a pedestrian/vehicle accident on Link 56 D, south of Brady.

It was reported that a pedestrian in an electric wheelchair had been struck by a vehicle.

Deputies located 54-year-old David Rice, Jr., of Brady, who was seriously injured.

Rice was transported to Great Plains Health, in North Platte, before being flown to a Denver hospital.

Authorities say Rice died from his injuries on Wednesday morning.

An accident reconstructionist was called to the scene to investigate and determined that Joshua Boon, of Brady, had been driving his vehicle northbound when he apparently struck Rice and his wheelchair.

Deputies say Boon was cited for no proof of insurance and no vehicle registration.

Investigators do not believe Boon was under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

The investigation is ongoing.
