Hien was struck at around 11 a.m. Monday on Walker Street after he had pulled over to adjust or examine the rear of his pickup truck. Walker Street is a connector for Smithfield Avenue and Lonsdale Avenue and has little or no breakdown lane where Hien had pulled over, Kells said.

Hien was traveling east from Smithfield Avenue to Londsale Avenue at the time, as was Correira, Kells said.

"He was at or near the rear of the vehicle on the driver’s side," Kells said of Hien. "It appeared he wanted to make some sort of adjustment. Something drew his attention to the back of his pickup."

Hien, 57, was the owner of the Living Room nightclub in Providence, as well as a coach in the Lincoln Little League for more than 25 years. He was praised by people in both the Providence music and the youth baseball communities as a compassionate and nurturing man who developed talent without being judgmental.

His funeral is set for Saturday at 10 a.m. in the St. Jude Church on Front Street in Lincoln, with calling hours Friday from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Bellows-Falso Funeral Home, 160 River Rd., Lincoln.
