A Mableton man died Thursday morning after being hit by an SUV.

Cobb police do not expect to file charges against Natalie Harden, 43, who was driving her Toyota 4Runner northbound on Floyd Road Wednesday night when she hit James C. Miskel, 64.

The Mableton man was taken to WellStar Cobb Hospital and later transported to Atlanta Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead as a result of his injuries, Cobb police spokesman Joe Hernandez said.
