TAMPA, Fla. \u2014 A woman was cited after a crash that left a pedestrian critically injured Saturday morning in Tampa, according to the Tampa Police Department (TPD).<\/p>\n
Officers responded just after 7 a.m. to the intersection of West Arch Street and North Boulevard following reports of a vehicle-versus-pedestrian crash, according to a news release.<\/p>\n
When officers arrived, they found an adult man with critical injuries. He was transported to a local hospital, where he remained in critical condition, police said.<\/p>\n
According to the preliminary investigation, an adult woman driving a 2015 Toyota Corolla was attempting to make a left turn from eastbound West Arch Street onto northbound North Boulevard when she struck the pedestrian.<\/p>\n
TPD said the man was attempting to cross the northbound lanes of North Boulevard at the time of the crash.<\/p>\n
The driver remained at the scene and cooperated with investigators.<\/p>\n
As a result of the investigation, the driver was cited for failure to yield to a pedestrian, TPD said.<\/p>\n
Investigators are still working to positively identify the pedestrian and are asking anyone with information to contact Tampa police at 813-231-6130 and reference case No. 26-569378.<\/p>\n
Police said speed and impairment are not believed to have been factors in the crash.<\/p>\n
North Boulevard was closed between West Arch Street and West Cypress Street during the investigation but has since reopened.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"TAMPA, Fla. \u2014 A woman was cited after a crash that left a pedestrian critically injured Saturday morning…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":412137,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[276,118889,135,5910,108336,3670,137,136,163386,3793,163387,163388,208],"class_list":["post-412136","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tampa","tag-hillsborough-county","tag-north-boulevard","tag-tampa","tag-tampa-bay-28","tag-tampa-bay-28-news","tag-tampa-bay-local-news","tag-tampa-headlines","tag-tampa-news","tag-tampa-pedestrian-crash","tag-tampa-police-department","tag-tampa-traffic-alert","tag-west-arch-street","tag-wfts"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/412136","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=412136"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/412136\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/412137"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=412136"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=412136"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=412136"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
