The Berkeley woman was struck by a driver in a crosswalk at Oxford Street and Marin Avenue on Feb. 12 just before 1:30 p.m.
A woman who was struck by a driver while jogging in the Berkeley Hills last week remains in critical condition this week, authorities said Wednesday.
The 37-year-old Berkeley resident was struck by a driver in a crosswalk at Oxford Street and Marin Avenue on Feb. 12 just before 1:30 p.m.
The pedestrian sustained serious head injuries in the crash.
The Berkeley Police Department called in its Fatal Accident Investigation Team, which handles serious as well as fatal crashes, to oversee the case.
The pedestrian was taken to Highland Hospital for treatment, according to emergency traffic reviewed by The Berkeley Scanner.
The driver, who had been westbound on Marin in an orange BMW, remained at the scene.
She complained of neck pain and subsequently went to Alta Bates Hospital for treatment.
Community members told The Scanner that the woman was jogging through the crosswalk when the driver struck her.
