Pedestrian Hit on S. Broadway in Nyack

A pedestrian was struck by a car and left with "serious injuries" on South Broadway in downtown Nyack Tuesday afternoon, said.

The accident occurred near the South Broadway-Burd Street intersection, and closed a portion of the South Broadway roadway for about one hour.

"The injured person was taken to the hospital," said Sgt. Sean Russo of the Orangetown Police Department.

Police remained at the scene after emergency vehicles took the victim away, and have not released further details.

Jack Dunnigan, who owns near the scene, did not see the accident—but he heard it.

"I heard the thump," Dunnigan said. "It's a bad situation."

Dunnigan said the victim was a female walking on the east side of the street.
