A man who ran out of a gas station into oncoming traffic was run over and killed at about 6:30 a.m. Friday.

The man came out of the bathroom of the Racetrac at 3204 Alta Mere Drive and ran into the street, where he was hit by a vehicle.

He was identified as Rodney Plunkett, 65, of Fort Worth, according to the Tarrant County medical examiner's website on Sunday. He died from blunt force trauma and his death was ruled an accident.
