Toronto police say a 61-year-old woman is in a hospital with life-threatening injuries after she was struck by a vehicle in Midtown.
Investigators say the woman was walking northbound along the west side of Yonge Street near Chatsworth Drive around 6 pm on Saturday when a 53-year-old woman driving a black Ford Edge SUV going northbound crossed into the southbound lanes and then mounted the sidewalk, striking the 61-year-old.
Photos from the scene show a black SUV with front-end damage from a traffic barrier. The driver’s airbag also appears to have been deployed.
Police say the driver of the vehicle remained at the scene.
An investigation is ongoing and there’s no word if charges are pending.
