A father was called to the scene of a deadly hit and run not knowing it was his son that was tragically killed in the collision.

Earlier this month, authorities confirmed to WBNG that 29-year-old Tyler Beschorner was killed by a car on Route 363 in Binghamton, New York.

Tyler's father, Cory Beschorner, works for the New York State Department of Transportation, and was subsequently called into work that evening to help out with road closures following the fatal crash.

The grieving dad told WBNG he did not know his son was the person killed.

“This is one of our worst nightmares,” Cory said.

"When we were setting up we were saying somebody’s world is going to be turned upside down tonight. I didn’t know it was mine or my family’s."

Tyler's family is desperately seeking answers as to what happened and is asking for the responsible party to come forward.

Shanay Beschorner, Tyler’s mother, said: "I don’t want to hold hate and I don’t want to be angry because it’s not going to change anything or bring him back."

Tyler's seven-year-old son Jayden is 'struggling' without his dad, according to Shanay.

"He’s just struggling. He keeps saying he’s all alone. He goes, ‘It’s just me.’ And I said, ‘No. You have all of us’,” she added.

The Binghamton Police Department told WBNG their investigations into the crash and Tyler's death are ongoing.

Captain Cory Minor is urging those in the community who may have any information to come forward as soon as possible.

“Community members should be mindful that they may have heard something. They may have heard someone talking about this not realizing what they heard and the importance of it,” he said.

Meanwhile, a friend has set up a GoFundMe page to help Tyler's family with funeral expenses.

The fundraiser reads: "Tyler was 29 years old with his whole life still ahead of him. Jayden Beshorner, his son was the center of his world and Tyler was the center of his. Tyler was the most genuine and selfless person I have ever met.

"He was loved by so many people throughout his life and truly knew how to brighten the mood in any room he walked into. He had a deep love for his friends and family. His adventurous personality captivated just about everyone he met throughout the years."

The money raised will also go towards a trust for Jayden, according to the friend.
