There are no known witnesses to the incident, and police do not have a vehicle description.
On Oct. 19, police were called to the intersection of Arlington Avenue E. and McAfee Street a little after 7:30 p.m. when a motorist discovered a man lying in the road and unconscious. He later died after being transported to a hospital.
The man has since been identified as John Bidon, who lived near the intersection, according to a Monday social media by the police department. The Ramsey County Medical Examiner’s Office determined Bidon likely died from a car hitting him.
There are no known witnesses to the incident and police do not have a vehicle description, said Sgt. Mike Ernster, a department spokesperson.
Anyone who has information on the incident is asked to St. Paul Police at 651-266-5722.
Defense attorneys urged jurors to think critically about testimony and question whether sufficient evidence has been presented in the case.
