The Avon Police Department has confirmed the construction worker killed Sept. 12 was Peter Maglis, 63, of Campbell, Ohio.

The accident, involving two cars--one of which struck Maglis--occured shortly after 9 a.m. near the Nagel Road bridge where the new I-90 interchange project is continuing. 

He was taken to Avon Emergency Care Center where he was pronounced dead a short time later.

I-90 westbound was closed from Crocker Road to Route 83 for about five hours, with traffic being diverted through Westlake.

According to Fox 8 News, Maglis was employed by Athos Painting, located in Seven Hills.

"He was said to be a dedicated worker who loved his family," the site reported.

Athos Painting has been in business since 1999.

The investigation is continuing. The drivers of the two vehicles were identified by Avon Police as Nathan Reese, 34, of Avon and Anthony J. Rose Jr. 50, of Breckville.
