A pedestrian is in critical condition after being hit by a car early Saturday morning. The accident happened at around 6:30 near City Hall.

Brewer Police shut down a portion of North Main Street after the accident this morning. Police cruisers blocked off the street from the Chamberlain Bridge to the intersection with Parker Street. A small silver sedan could be seen, along with multiple police cars and a firetruck.

WABI-TV reports David Grant, age 73 of Brewer, is in critical condition after being hit as he was crossing Main Street by Brewer City Hall. Police plan to investigate the early morning lighting situation on Sunday morning. Because of the early hour, they say visibility may have been a factor.

A Facebook post on the Brewer PD's page announced the road was reopened at around 10:00 a.m.
