(CBS News)  BEAUFORT, S.C. - Police are investigating a deadly multi-vehicle accident in which a naked man stole a fire truck, collided with several cars, and struck and killed a pedestrian.

Beaufort firefighters said they were at a medical call at the Laurel Hill apartments when 22-year-old Kalvin Hunt stole the Port Royal fire truck, CBS Affiliate WTOC reports.

Hunt allegedly caused several wrecks, including one in Port Royal and another near the base of the Lady's Island Bridge.

The Beaufort County Coroner's Office said Saturday that 28-year-old Justin Miller of Port Royal was killed by the careening fire truck as he walked along a sidewalk.

Hunt ultimately crashed the fire truck into a tree, pinning himself inside.

Once freed, a naked Hunt started assaulting two Beaufort police officers. During the incident, three officers and one EMT were injured; the four were all treated at a hospital and released.

Hunt remains hospitalized.
