Police release identity of man struck on bridge

Pedestrian in critical but stable condition

JEFFERSONVILLE — The Jeffersonville Police Department has released the name of the man struck Wednesday on the Clark Memorial Bridge.

Michael Amick, 38, of Louisville, was walking southbound on the sidewalk on the east side of the bridge. Detective Todd Hollis said Amick collided with a bicyclist headed in the opposite direction on the sidewalk. Amick fell into the roadway and was struck by a Mitsubishi Eclipse.

Police were called to the scene at 6:17 p.m. and found Amick with serious head wounds. He was listed Thursday morning in critical but stable condition at University Hospital in Louisville.

The bridge was closed for about three hours as investigators reconstructed the accident. No charges are expected to be filed.
