It was reported to the Honolulu Police Department, Traffic Division, Vehicular Homicide Section, that a 37-year-old female motorist was traveling northbound on Pali Highway approaching the intersection of Pali Highway and Vineyard Boulevard, when she collided with an adult female pedestrian who was crossing Pali Highway in a marked crosswalk against a “Do Not Walk” sign. 

As a result of the collision, the female pedestrian who has yet to be identified was thrown onto the roadway and sustained injuries.

The female pedestrian was taken to an area hospital in critical condition where she later succumbed to her injuries and was pronounced dead.
