SAN ANTONIO -- A couple walking on East Commerce were both killed late Saturday when a truck hit them.

Police say the couple were walking in the middle of the road around 10:30 p.m. Saturday when they were struck on the East Side.

The man who was struck was thrown into oncoming traffic and was run over by a taxi cab. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

The woman who was struck died en route to the hospital, police told News 4 San Antonio.

While police are still investigating, they believe the couple may have been under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

Probably none of it, since they are both dead.
