A woman suffered life-threatening injuries after being struck by a Hummer on Wednesday in downtown Las Vegas, police said.

The Hummer was traveling west on Ogden Avenue, near the Fremont Street Experience, when it began turning onto Main Street and struck a woman in a crosswalk, Metropolitan Police Department Lt. CJ Jenkins said Wednesday night. The pedestrian was taken to University Medical Center with life-threatening injuries.

Police do not believe the male driver was impaired, Jenkins said.

Further information about the crash or the woman injured was not immediately available.
