A 67-year-old woman was killed this morning while in a marked crosswalk in Kalihi.

Honolulu Police Lt. Robert Towne said a negligent homicide investigation has been started following the 6 a.m. accident on North King St. near Gulick Ave.

Alcohol and speed do not appear to be factors in the accident, Towne said.

The victim was in a marked crosswalk on North King Street when she was struck by a Chevy pickup truck driven by a man in his 40s, Towne said.

Paramedics took the woman in critical condition to Queen’s Medical Center, where she died.
