A Fort Worth man was struck and killed by a car early Thursday on Jacksboro Highway, authorities said.

Jimmy Lollar, 63, was pronounced dead at 5:50 a.m., according to the Tarrant County Medical Examiner.

Lollar was either standing in the road or trying to cross the eastbound lanes of the 7900 block of Jacksboro Highway when he was struck by a car traveling in the same direction, said Terry Grisham, a spokesman for the Tarrant County Sherriff's Department.
