Police ID man hit, killed by car in Cranston
CRANSTON, R.I. (WPRI) — Cranston police have identified the man who was hit and killed by a car on Atwood Avenue Friday evening.
Major Todd Patalano said the man was 80-year-old Richard Viti, of Cranston.
Police were called Friday evening to the area of 700 Atwood Avenue for reports of a pedestrian who was hit by a car. Investigators say Viti was crossing the street to get to the San Bernardo Society.
The driver, who has not yet been identified, faces charges of operating on a suspended license and operating an unregistered vehicle, according to Patalano.
There may be more charges the driver is facing as the investigation is still in its early stages, Patalano explained.
Viti was taken to Rhode Island Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
Patalano said the driver is cooperating with authorities.

Backyard Cookout Costs Rise: What Rhode Island Hosts Can Expect
Prepared potato salad is up 3%, while cornbread is up 4%. Eggs, however, are a bright spot, with prices down 14%, which could make deviled eggs or other egg-based sides a more affordable addition.
Vegetable trays may require a little strategy. Broccoli, celery and cauliflower are up 6%, while snacking tomatoes are up 2% and baby carrots are up just 1%.
Fruit could help offset some of the increases. Strawberries are about the same price as last year, and watermelon is down 3%.
Some Sweet News About Desserts
Dessert prices are rising more moderately than other cookout staples.
Store-bought cookies are up 1 percent, ice cream is up 2%, and store-bought apple pie is up 4%, according to the analysis. That means a mix-and-match dessert table can still be a relatively affordable way to end the meal.
