NEW YORK (WABC) -- Fleet Week took a tragic turn early Thursday, as a Marine was struck by a car and killed while trying to cross a street on the West Side.
The 22-year-old Marine had just arrived in town on one of the boats arriving for the festivities Wednesday.
He was crossing 12th Avenue at 49th Street around 1 a.m. when he was hit. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

It's one thing getting killed in defense of one's country, quite another to buy it crossing the street. Poor kid.
