Streamwood police said a 2007 Mack truck hit the unidentified man shortly after noon on the 500 block of South Bartlett Road, just north of the intersection with Streamwood Boulevard. A preliminary investigation reveals the truck was traveling south on South Bartlett Road when the pedestrian was struck in the roadway, officials said in a statement.
