A 69-year-old woman struck by a vehicle in East York last week has died of her injuries in hospital.

Toronto police said a 58-year-old man driving a GMC Van was travelling southbound on O’Connor Drive, near St. Clair Avenue, around 6 p.m. when he struck the pedestrian.

The woman was walking across O’Connor Drive at the time of the incident, investigators said.

She was rushed to hospital with what were initially described as a serious leg injury but her condition later worsened.

Police confirmed her death on Thursday.

The driver involved in the crash remained at the scene.
