At 9:10 p.m., West Hartford Police, Fire and EMS were dispatched to the area of North Main Street and Proctor Drive for an injured pedestrian.

Upon arrival, officers located a 17-year-old male with serious injuries just off of the roadway of North Main Street.

The male was transported to a local hospital for treatment.

No vehicle possibly involved remained on scene.

The pedestrian was struck near Hall High School, where a varsity football game began at 7 p.m. The game reportedly ended around 9 p.m., shortly before emergency crews arrived. It is unclear whether the incident was connected to the game.

The West Hartford Police accident reconstruction team was called to investigate the incident. The area remains closed for the police investigation.

The incident is still under active investigation.

The West Hartford Police Department would like to thank the West Hartford Public Safety Dispatchers, as well as the West Hartford Fire Department and AMR for their efforts on scene.
