COLONIE— A 61-year-old woman was hit by a car and killed while crossing Route 2 at around 7:15 p.m. on Tuesday, Dec. 11.
She is possibly from Albany, but police are not releasing her name at this time.
She was struck at the intersection with Swatling Road, said Lt. Robert Donnelly, by a 1998 Toyota travelling westbound.
The driver, a 57-year-old from Troy, immediately stopped and called police.
Impaired driving was not a factor.
Colonie EMS and the Latham and Boght fire departments, responded to the scene.
Traffic on Route two was restricted to one lane in each direction for several hours while police processed the scene using, among other tools, a drone unit.
Anyone who may have witnessed the crash is asked to call the Colonie Police at 518 783-2744.
