Detective Sergeant Kelly Douglas said: “We are continuing to work to establish the full circumstances of this incident and how the man was injured and came to be on the A75. We are keen to speak to anyone who was in the area and in particular the group of young people we know were in the area as they may have information which could prove useful.
“We would also be keen to speak to anyone else with any information or perhaps dashcam footage which has not yet been passed to police. Anyone with information can call police on 101, quoting incident number 0596 of 12 November, 2022.”
