San Francisco, CA – Woman Critically Injured in Pedestrian Accident on Mission Street

San Francisco, CA – (November 27, 2018) – An 85-year-old woman was left in critical condition after being struck by a vehicle Saturday afternoon in San Francisco. The accident took place at approximately 4:55 pm on November 24th, at Mission Street and 6th Street in the South Market neighborhood.

According to detectives, the elderly woman attempted to cross the street at an intersection when she was suddenly struck by an oncoming vehicle. Responding firefighters discovered the woman lying in the roadway suffering from life-threatening injuries. Paramedics transported her to a local hospital where she was listed in critical condition. The patient’s name and current condition remain unknown. Officials confirmed that the driver immediately fled the scene. Police later located the 47-year-old man and placed him under arrest. Police are still working to determine the sequence of events leading up to the accident.

Our hearts are with the elderly pedestrian and her family as she begins to heal from her injuries. We are always saddened to learn about such a tragic accident, especially one that involves our elderly. We hope the injured woman receives the best possible medical treatment to make a full recovery.
