A man apparently lying on a street in Long Beach was hit by a car and killed, authorities said Wednesday.
Officers were sent to Studebaker Road and Spring Street at about 11:55 p.m. Tuesday, according to the Long Beach Police Department.
Paramedics pronounced the man dead at the scene. Information on his identity was not immediately available.
