CHARLOTTE, NC, (March 14, 2026) – A 28-year-old man died after being struck by an SUV in Charlotte on March 14, according to the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department.
Authorities said William Primos was hit by a Ford Explorer on South Tryon Street near Bowman Road at approximately 2 a.m. He was transported to a hospital, where he later died on March 27.
The investigation into the crash remains ongoing.
Pedestrian fatalities continue to rise across North Carolina.
Between 2018 and 2022, the state saw nearly a 20 percent increase in pedestrian deaths. In 2022 alone, 269 pedestrians lost their lives.
According to Candice Bond, an experienced pedestrian accident attorney, many of these incidents are linked to driver negligence. She emphasized that in situations like this, an independent investigation by a qualified attorney is critical to safeguarding the rights of the victim’s family.
“Having adequate resources is vital when investigating a pedestrian crash and establishing liability,” said Bond, Managing Partner at Bond Legal and national analyst for Accident Injury News. “Factors such as roadway conditions, visibility of signage, and lighting must all be carefully reviewed. These steps are essential to help families obtain justice and financial compensation after a tragic loss.”
The family members of William Primos may be eligible to pursue a wrongful death claim. Loved ones of victims can seek compensation for loss of companionship, pain and suffering, and emotional distress following a devastating accident.
“We recognize the hardships families endure after such losses, and protecting their rights is essential,” said Stefano Formica, Of Counsel with Bond Legal. “A wrongful death attorney will monitor the progress of the investigation and help ensure that the family’s interests are represented. Surviving relatives have the right to seek damages for loss of companionship, pain and suffering, and emotional distress following a tragic accident.”
