Police said in a news release Tuesday that no one has been charged in the case, which took place Aug. 30 around 1 p.m. at the intersection of Wellington Street East and Kohler Street.

The collision involved two vehicles: a silver Nissan SUV driven by the victim and a silver Dodge pickup driven by a 28-year-old.
