Details have started to emerge about the incident, after it was initially reported that Haskins was killed after being struck by a vehicle.
7 News WSVN in Miami released a story about the incident, without naming Haskins by name, stating that a dump truck struck a man around 6:37 a.m. while he was walking on Interstate 595 in Fort Lauderdale. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
Florida Highway Patrol spokeswoman Lt. Indiana Miranda confirmed Haskins’s death, and said it is unknown why Haskins was on the interstate at this time.
“He was just walking on the highway and got hit,” Miranda told The Associated Press.
