Pedestrian struck in San Jose crosswalk dies 5 days later

(KRON) — A pedestrian who was struck by a car in a crosswalk on Lucretia Avenue in San Jose died five days after the accident, police said.

On the afternoon of Aug. 4, a woman was driving a 2019 gray Nissan Sentra sedan westbound on Tully Road. When she made a right turn onto Lucretia Avenue, her car struck a man who was attempting to cross the street in a marked crosswalk, the San Jose Police Department said.

“The driver remained on scene and was cooperative with the investigation. The pedestrian was transported to a local hospital,” SJPD wrote.

Detectives were later notified that the pedestrian succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced deceased on August 9.

His death marks the city’s 28th fatal collision and 14th pedestrian death of 2026. SJPD did not release the names of the driver and victim.
