A woman has died after being struck by a vehicle in Vanier early Friday morning, Ottawa paramedics say.
The incident happened shortly before 6 a.m. at Deschamps and Marier avenues, according to the Ottawa Paramedic Service.
Police also confirmed the fatality involving a pedestrian and a vehicle and said there were still road closures in the area as of 7:30 a.m.
Marier Avenue is closed between Montreal Road and Carillon Street, the city said, while Deschamps Avenue is closed between Hannah Street and Marier Avenue.
“Saddened to hear that someone has lost their life this morning,” Coun. Mathieu Fleury said in a tweet. “One death on our roads is too many.”
Fleury said while he doesn’t have many details, he’ll be “listening closely to findings and recommendations” from the investigation.
