Phoenix police have identifed the man who died after being struck by a Phoenix city bus.
Rholaniel Charleston, 31, died about 11:45 p.m. July 22 at the scene near Central Avenue and Van Buren Street, police said.
Preliminary information suggests the bus was heading west on Van Buren Street and making a right turn onto Central Avenue when the pedestrian attempted to get the bus to stop, according to an earlier release.
The man was banging on the door and walking next to the bus. The bus driver did not stop due to the area not being designated as a bus stop.
The pedestrian lost his footing and fell into the roadway after which he was struck by the bus, the release stated.
