A woman killed last week in an early-morning pedestrian crash in San Francisco’s South of Market neighborhood has been identified as Cheryl D. Coleman, a 61-year-old city resident, the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner said.
Coleman died June 3 after a vehicle collision near Brannan and Seventh streets, according to San Francisco police. Officers responded about 5:31 a.m. and found Coleman on the ground.
Coleman was pronounced dead at the scene.
The driver remained at the scene and is cooperating with investigators, police said. Alcohol or drugs did not appear to be factors at the time of the initial investigation, police said.
Public payroll records list Coleman as a U.S. Postal Service mail processing clerk. The Chronicle has asked USPS for additional information.
Coleman’s death came during a deadly stretch for pedestrians in San Francisco. Less than an hour after the SoMa crash, police responded to the 900 block of Geneva Avenue, where a person was found dead in the street.
Walk San Francisco, a pedestrian safety advocacy group, said it learned from police that both people who died that morning were pedestrians. The group said the deaths brought San Francisco’s pedestrian fatality count to 11 so far this year, though city fatality data is not updated in real time.
Police have not released additional details about how the SoMa crash occurred.
