The lanes reopened a little after 10 p.m.
According to ISP Sgt. Carey Huls, a preliminary investigation from video evidence shows that a man crossed the interstate in an unlit area.
That's when a semi hit the man and he died. The driver remained on scene, Huls said, and no charges are expected to be filed.
Huls said officers were unable to find an abandoned vehicle in the area so it's unknown why the man was crossing the interstate.
