A driver was struck and killed while getting out of his car to cross a Rhode Island highway where people were seen scrambling to pick up loose cash, according to reports.

Kevin Elliot McCourt stopped his car on I-95 in Providence around 5:40 a.m. Wednesday and had already walked across the southbound lanes when he was fatally struck by a Volkswagen SUV on the northbound side, WJAR reported.

The deadly accident came as civilians and cops were filmed chasing down dollar bills that were flying around on the same highway, NBC News said.

However, police have not yet confirmed if McCourt was killed while trying to grab the loose cash. It was also not clear where the money came from.

I feel sorry for the driver.

Dollar bills? These people set the value of their lives really low.

It could thin out the highway off-ramp panhandlers.

From the article: "I hope whoever lost that money didn’t need it too much..."

I hope whoever lost the money actually lost it and didn't do it to bait people.
