One person died early Monday at a gas station in Springfield

Springfield Police said an individual found lying in the parking lot of a Chevron gas station at 3375 Gateway Street died despite officers rendering aid.

The identity of the deceased is being withheld until next of kin are notified.

Springfield Police spokesperson Zak Gosa-Lewis said officers responding to a disturbance call at 2:54 a.m. found the body and made note of a large moving truck with a trailer leaving the gas station and merging onto northbound Interstate 5.

The truck is "believed to be the one responsible for hitting the deceased individual," Gosa-Lewis said, noting an initial investigation indicates the death was accidental.

He said officers stopped the moving truck on the freeway, and the driver is cooperating.

"The only thing we can confirm is that the individual is deceased, but we cannot release additional information because the investigation is not finalized," Gosa-Lewis said.

Anyone who may have witnessed the incident is asked to call the Springfield Police Department at 541-726-3714.
