A woman in her 20s died early Tuesday morning in Aurora after a driver hit her while she crossed the road.
The crash happened about 7:45 a.m. near Montview Boulevard and Paris Street, Aurora police reported on X.
The woman was not walking on a crosswalk when she crossed the road, Aurora police spokesperson Joe Moylan said.
According to a news release, the woman was crossing Montview northbound in the middle of the block when the driver of a red Subaru Legacy hit her. The woman was taken to a hospital and later died.
The speed of the vehicle was not a factor in the crash, Moylan said, and the driver, a Denver woman, did stay at the scene.
The news release said police did not suspect any other “aggravating contributing factors” in the crash.
Montview is closed from Paris to Oswego streets for the crash investigation. Drivers are advised to use 19th Avenue as an alternate route.
