78-year-old pedestrian dies after being struck during heavy rainstorm

A 78-year-old woman has died after being struck by a vehicle while attempting to cross the street during heavy rain in Vancouver.

 The incident occurred at about 11 a.m. on November 6 at the intersection of Dunbar Street and West 34th Avenue. The woman was crossing Dunbar Street in an unmarked crosswalk when she was struck by a Lexus sedan. The driver remained at the scene and cooperated with investigators. The woman was transported to Vancouver General Hospital by ambulance, but she died in hospital the following day.

 "Witnesses noted it was heavily raining at the time of the collision," said Sergeant Adam Donaldson of the Vancouver Police Department. "The investigation is ongoing, and no charges have been laid at this time."

 This incident marks Vancouver's 13th fatal traffic collision of the year.
