One of two women injured in a collision Wednesday afternoon in Côte-des-Neiges has died.
Montreal police spokesperson Véronique Dubuc said it happened shortly after 1 p.m. on Bourret Avenue near the intersection of McLynn Avenue.
Officers responding to the call located a first person who was seriously injured. The victim, a 55-year-old woman, was rushed to hospital in critical condition.
Montreal police confirmed Wednesday evening that the woman had passed away in hospital.
A second woman, 58, was also taken to hospital. Dubuc said her life was not in danger.
Dubuc said witnesses told police the driver of a minivan was heading east on Bourret Avenue when she hit a parked car and the pedestrians.
The driver, a 64-year-old woman, was treated for shock in hospital.
Crime scene technicians were dispatched to the scene.
Bourret was closed to traffic between Clanranald and Coolbrooke avenues to allow for the investigation.
