A pedestrian was struck by a vehicle along North Second Street in Duquesne Monday afternoon.

City police said they were dispatched around 1:15 p.m. for the incident in front of Truman Towers.

Officers reported a 56-year-old Braddock man had walked onto the street behind a vehicle and was struck by a Ford Focus driven by a 65-year-old woman from Duquesne.
