Woman Killed After Being Struck by Two Vehicles on McCrary Road Near Semmes

A 46-year-old Mobile woman was killed on a Sunday evening after being struck by two separate vehicles while walking along McCrary Road roughly two miles north of Semmes, according to Alabama State Troopers.

Troopers said the pedestrian was walking along the roadway around 5:40 p.m. when a pickup truck struck her. A second vehicle also struck the woman shortly afterward. She was transported to University of South Alabama Medical Center in Mobile, where she was later pronounced dead.

The driver of the first vehicle involved was not injured in the collision. Troopers said the second vehicle involved in the crash had not been publicly identified as the investigation continued into the following day.

State troopers said they were still working to determine the exact circumstances that led to the pedestrian being struck, and had not released additional details about what she may have been doing on McCrary Road at the time of the crash or what visibility conditions were like along that stretch of roadway that evening.

No further updates on the status of the investigation were available at the time of the initial report.
