An 80-year-old has “major life-altering” injuries after being struck by a vehicle in the city’s northwest end on Friday.

Toronto police say a white cargo van was travelling eastbound on Strathearn Road just before 7:30 a.m. when it proceeded to make a right hand turn onto Bathurst Street.

A woman was crossing from south to north on the west side of Bathurst when she was struck by the cargo van.

Police say the elderly woman was taken to hospital with major life-altering injuries.

The driver remained at the scene for the investigation. There is no word if any charges will be laid.
