A 49-year-old woman remained in critical condition Monday after being struck by a car while crossing 159th Street Thursday night, an Orland Park spokesperson said Monday.
The spokesperson said rainy weather caused low visibility, and the woman was struck by a vehicle being driven by a 39-year-old man near the intersection of 159th Street and 94th Avenue. Police did not name the driver nor the woman who was hit.
Orland Park police provided CPR to the woman on the scene before firefighters transported her to Advocate Christ Medical Center, the spokesperson said.
Officers closed the intersection for several hours to completed accident reconstruction. The driver was also taken to a nearby hospital as part of standard protocol.
