A pedestrian died after being struck by a vehicle while crossing the 1200 block of N. Howard Street early Thursday morning, according to Baltimore Police.
Two people were walking east to west in the crosswalk at about 1:54 a.m. when one was hit by an unknown vehicle, police said.
The vehicle left the scene.
The victim, who has not yet been identified by investigators, was transported to the Maryland Shock Trauma Center in serious condition, according to police, and was pronounced dead at 2:37 a.m.

Yet another example of: a person could be doing the right things (i.e., using a crosswalk) and still get killed by inattentive motor vehicle operators.
Shame on Baltimore.
