Police say a woman was left hospitalized and has been cited after she was struck by an SUV while trying to cross Sheridan Road in Zion.
The Zion Police Department and Zion Fire Rescue Department responded around 8:36 p.m. Sunday to the area of Wendy’s, 3400 Sheridan Road, for a report of a pedestrian-involved crash.
Zion Police Department Lt. Derek Zaloudek said a 54-year-old woman attempted to cross east across Sheridan Road.
The woman was not in a crosswalk and was wearing dark clothing.
A red Nissan Rogue was traveling northbound on Sheridan Road and struck the woman, Zaloudek said.
The driver of the Nissan, a 48-year-old woman, remained at the scene and called 911, Zaloudek said. She cooperated with the investigation.
Paramedics initially requested a medical helicopter to be placed on standby but canceled the request.
Paramedics transported the victim to the hospital by ambulance.
She suffered injuries that were not life-threatening, Zaloudek said.
The female pedestrian has been cited after investigators determined she was at fault in the crash.
