FORT WAYNE, Ind. (AP) - Authorities have identified a man who police say jumped out of a moving car in Fort Wayne while quarreling with the driver and was struck and killed by another vehicle.
The Journal Gazette and WPTA-TV report the Allen County coroner on Sunday identified the man as 25-year-old Richard John May of Bluffton. Bluffton is about 25 miles south of Fort Wayne.

May was pronounced dead at the scene. The Allen County Coroner has ruled his death an accident.
Police say the driver of the car that hit the man wasn't injured.
