Longview police spokeswoman Kristie Brian said Harold Grady, 57, was struck by Ashley Lambert, 19, about 7:45 Monday evening when he stepped into the roadway. Brian said Lambert went to the police station Monday night, because when she got home she realized that she had hit something. The case is being turned over to the Gregg County District Attorney’s Office to determine whether charges will be filed against Lambert. No charges have been filed at this time. Grady, of Farmersville, was pronounced dead at Longview Regional Hospital at about 8:30 p.m. Monday by Justice of the Peace B.H. Jameson.
