Police responded to the accident just after 7 p.m. at the corner of 7th and Ritner streets. Based on preliminary information uncovered so far, Inspector D F Pace with the Philadelphia Police Department said it looks as though the black F-150 was parked on the southeast corner of 7th and Ritner streets.

Pace said the woman lives a mere number of feet away from the area where she was hit by the truck. The woman was rushed to Jefferson Methodist Hospital by police where she died just after 7:30 p.m., officials said.
