Oakland County Sheriff's deputies are investigating a deadly hit-and-run in Waterford Township.

It happened around 7:10 p.m. Friday in the area of Telegraph and Lakeview Ave., which is just south of M-59.

Deputies were investigating for over three hours and had to close the road while they investigated.

We're told the victim is 53-year-old Timothy Pressnell from Pontiac. Presnell is homeless and was walking north on Telegraph when he was hit.

Deputies are looking for a red SUV type vehicle, possibly a 1998-2001 GMC Jimmy or Oldsmobile Bravada with left headlight damage.
