A person was killed early Sunday after being hit by a vehicle on Interstate 35 in Fort Worth, according to police.

At 4:30 a.m., Fort Worth police officers were dispatched to I-35W and East Allen Avenue responding to an “automobile versus a pedestrian accident,” said police spokesperson Bradley Perez.
