PHOENIX — A 28-year-old woman died after being struck by two vehicles on Friday night, according to the Phoenix Police Department.

The incident occurred just before 9:15 p.m. near 30th Avenue and Thomas Road in Phoenix.

Police say that the woman was attempting to cross Thomas Road when an eastbound SUV driven by an 86-year-old man struck her.

The woman “went up and over the vehicle and then landed in the roadway,” according to authorities.

A pickup truck that was driven by a 61-year-old man then hit the woman while she was on the ground, police said.

She was transported to a local hospital where she succumbed to her injuries.

Both of the drivers remained on scene and were evaluated, but neither showed signs of impairment, authorities said.

This investigation is ongoing.

No other information was made immediately available.
