This is not the first time Tulsa police have been concerned with the intersection during past fairs, according to Officer Danny Bean.
“In the past, we’ve requested from the fair to have lightning out there and in the past, there has been sometimes officers out there, " Bean said.
"This year that was not the case."
The victim was wearing dark-colored clothing. Officer Bean said people should always try to cross safely.
“Find a well-lit place to cross the street," Bean said.
"Maybe a stoplight. Maybe someplace where we do have lights lit."
