    A man has been hospitalized after being hit by a big rig in Merced County.

    The California Highway Patrol says it happened just before 4 am Wednesday on the frontage road south of Cressy Way. That's between Atwater and Livingston.

    Officers say a big rig driver thought he hit something. He pulled over, checked his cameras and realized he actually ran into a person.

    The big rig driver called 911.

    Authorities found the man with major injuries.

    He was airlifted to a hospital in Modesto.

    Officers say drugs or alcohol do not appear to be factors in the crash.
