Marietta Police said that two construction workers sustained life-threatening injuries when they were struck by a vehicle at the Interstate 75 overpass at Roswell Road early Sunday.
In a release, Marietta Police said they’re still looking for the driver of a gray 2019 Volkswagen Jetta that struck Jimmy Varraza, 38, and Oscar Aguilar, 28, both of metro Atlanta, as they were preparing for a lane closure at 1:40 a.m. Sunday.
Police said that the Volkswagen was traveling eastbound on Roswell Road, and that the two workers had gotten out of their vehicle to set up a traffic directional sign.
