PITTSBURGH — A woman died from injuries sustained after she was hit by a bus Tuesday morning in downtown Pittsburgh, officials said.
The Medical Examiner’s office identified the woman 64-year-old Dal Rai. She died two days after the accident.
Rai was hit shortly before 6:30 a.m. along Liberty Avenue. It was a Port Authority of Allegheny County bus that was involved.
The front of the bus hit Rai, who then became caught between the front bumper and the street, a Port Authority spokesperson said.
